Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Dyami Brown has a brother named Khafre Brown, who was also a wide receiver at the University of North Carolina.

Dyami Brown has returned to action in Week 5 against the Kansas City Chiefs after missing last week’s game due to a shoulder injury.

Brown sustained the injury during the Jaguars’ Week 3 win over the Houston Texans and was ruled out for the Week 4 matchup against the San Francisco 49ers.

Brown has quickly become a valuable asset to the Jaguars’ offense since joining the team as a free agent.

In three games this season, he has recorded 10 receptions for 116 yards and a touchdown.

Jacksonville Jaguars Wide Receiver Dyami Brown’s Brother, Khafre Brown, Had a Successful Collegiate Football Career!

Born on January 1, 2001, in Charlotte, North Carolina, Khafre Brown began his football journey at West Mecklenburg High School alongside his brother Dyami.

His early promise earned him a scholarship to the University of North Carolina, where he redshirted his freshman year in 2019.

By 2020, Brown had emerged as a deep-threat receiver, averaging over 22 yards per catch and scoring memorable touchdowns, including a 76-yard strike against Virginia.

Following that, he transferred to the University of South Florida in 2022, which led him to his current team, the University of Arkansas, where he joined the Razorbacks.

After joining Razorbacks, he made an immediate impact in the season opener against Arkansas-Pine Bluff, catching two passes for 42 yards.

Having played for years with Razorbacks, Khafre has now entered the NCAA transfer portal, marking another chapter in his well-traveled college football career.

After spending the 2024 season with the Arkansas Razorbacks, Brown decided to seek a new opportunity following limited playing time.

Currently, Brown has not announced his next destination, and no team has officially signed him yet.

He remains in the transfer portal, exploring options for what could be his final season of college football.
