Tarell Lameek Brown (born January 6, 1985) is a former American football cornerback. He was selected by the San Francisco 49ers in the fifth round of the 2007 NFL draft. He played college football for the University of Texas.

Early life

Brown played for North Mesquite High School in Mesquite, Texas. He played in the 2003 U.S. Army All-American Bowl.^[1]

College career

Brown played defensive back for the Texas Longhorns college football team. He was a member of the National Championship team that played in the 2006 Rose Bowl National Championship Game against USC. Brown was injured in the fourth quarter of the game and left with a broken arm.^[2]

On September 4, 2006, Brown was one of two UT players and one former UT player were arrested in Austin and charged for marijuana possession, a Class B misdemeanor.^[3] The two then-current players, Tarell Brown and Tyrell Gatewood, were suspended from the team and did not play on September 9, 2006 game against the 2006 Ohio State Buckeyes football team.^[3] Noted for his continual legal problems, Brown was also charged with a Class A misdemeanor weapons violation for being in possession of a firearm without a permit.^[3] It was later revealed that Brown and Gatewood had been tasered during the arrest, although the reasons for such treatment were not fully established.^[4]

During his career at Texas he played in 45 games, recording 61 tackles and 3 interceptions. He played on teams that won the Rose Bowl twice and the Alamo Bowl once.

Professional career

San Francisco 49ers

Brown was selected by the San Francisco 49ers in the fifth round (148th overall) of the 2007 NFL draft.^[5] During his rookie season, he played in nine games, particularly on special teams and finished the season with two tackles. Brown partially tore his Anterior Cruciate Ligament and tore his Medial collateral ligament completely in Week 17. He was recovered by the start of training camp.

In 2008 Brown got his first start in week 10. In week 16 he intercepted a pass from Rams quarterback Marc Bulger in the final minute of the game, capping off a come-from-behind win in the fourth quarter. It was one of two interceptions for the season.

In 2009, he played in ever game and started four, with 2 more interceptions including one he returned for 51 yards to set up the game winning touchdown against Chicago.

In 2010 he saw less playing time and didn't start all season, but in 2011, he was named the starter at Right Cornerback taking the spot from Shawntae Spencer. He started all sixteen games and had career-highs with 4 interceptions and 14 pass deflections as he helped the 49ers become one of the elite defenses in the NFL. He scored his only career touchdown on a career long 62 yard interception return in the final game against the Washington Redskins.

In the 2012 season, Brown again started every game all the way to Super Bowl XLVII. In the game, he had three combined tackles, a forced fumble, and a fumble recovery as the 49ers fell to the Baltimore Ravens by a score of 34–31.^[6] He had a career high 57 combined tackles that year.

During the 2013 offseason, Brown skipped the 49ers' voluntary offseason workout program, which would have paid him an additional $2 million in wages for the 2013 season. Brown fired his agent, Brian Overstreet, saying Overstreet failed to spot an escalation clause in Brown's contract which would have awarded him the pay increase simply for showing up to the offseason workout.^[7] Brown started the first ten games of 2013, but then missed the next three following a rib injury during a game against New Orleans. In the last three games his playing time was reduced, but for the three playoff games - including the NFC Championship - he was back to playing full time.^[8] After the season was over he signed a one-year deal with the Oakland Raiders.^[9]

Brown started 14 games with Oakland in 2014, before ending the season on the injured reserve list.

In 2015, Brown was signed, just before camp began, by the New England Patriots. He played in 3 of the first 4 games before being placed on the injured reserve with a foot injury for the rest of the season. His contract expired at the end of the season.

Oakland Raiders

Brown agreed to a one-year deal worth $3.5 million for the Oakland Raiders in March 2014.^[10] He started 14 games with the Raiders, recording 55 tackles and 4 deflected passes.

New England Patriots

Brown agreed to terms with the New England Patriots on July 23, 2015.^[11] On October 17, Brown was placed on injured reserve with a foot injury.
