Brown’s most prized accomplishment is his children who have been seasoned to follow in their dad’s successful pattern in athletics. Brown’s youngest son, Jaylen Brown from Cal State University, was recently in the 2016 NBA Draft and accepted to the Boston Celtics in the first round, guaranteeing him a contract and promising career in the NBA. Brown is looking for his oldest son, Quenton Brown Jr., to be drafted to the NFL soon.
“My main motivation for coming out of retirement was to show my kids that I never gave up on my dreams. So I didn’t want them to give up on theirs. I am extremely proud of both my sons. I am especially proud of Jaylen. He is an extraordinary athlete and very smart, he’s even planning to go to Harvard next year, so I am extremely proud of both my sons, really. The only advice I could give them when entering into the professional arena, they are going to be in for a rude awakening. They are going to see how nasty the entertainment industry really is. I want them to know to stay on course and don’t let anybody distract them and they’ll be just fine,” said Brown.

Nah man the move is to raise your kid to be a place kicker. How many NFL kickers have been training kicking field goals since they were say 4 or 5? None. Don't have to bet on him being tall or particularly athletic.

Our boy Jaylen voted most athletic. Like duh doi.
Also 3rd in Steal of the Draft. Were some of the rookies expecting he should've gone 1st or 2nd?
