Former Heel Jason Brown gets first NFL start

Posted Dec 12, 2005

It was the first significant action this season for Jason Brown, the Ravens' fourth-round pick who is also the backup center. "We'll have to get in there and review things on film," Brown said. "I got my ankle rolled up right before the first half. That hurt me pretty bad. A first impression is a lasting impression, and I really wanted to give my team the best that I could. I hope that we can look back on things and say that I gave a winning performance." (Baltimore Sun)
