South Carolina has bolstered its defensive line with the addition of former Missouri EDGE Jaylen Brown, one of the top-ranked players in the transfer portal, as he confirmed to On3Sports.
Standing 6’6” and weighing 265 pounds, Brown entered the portal as the No. 7 EDGE prospect and one of the most highly sought-after defensive talents, according to the On3 Industry Rankings. Hailing from Madison, Alabama, Brown was ranked No. 129 overall in the 2024 class coming out of high school.
As a freshman at Missouri, Brown had limited playing time, recording two tackles. However, he joins South Carolina with four years of eligibility remaining and significant potential as a disruptive pass rusher.
