It's a wrap. There's no more football for me. They're always inquiring if I'm done. Yeah, that's it. There's no more. It was an awesome ride."

Brown started his career with the Buffalo Bills and made 8 straight Pro Bowl from his 1996 to 2003, his final Pro Bowl appearance came as a Chicago Bear in 2006 the year they played in the Super Bowl.
