The Philadelphia Eagles safety and Cincinnati Bengals running back share an NFL field and an honor
When the NFL's Cincinnati Bengals took on the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday in Week 8, two former Illinois football stars took the field – no longer alongside one another, but for the first time against one another – as captains for their respective teams.It was what will surely be an unforgettable memory for the Brown brothers. Ultimately, Sydney got the best of Chase as the Eagles claimed a 37-17 victory. Despite the final score, Chase was grateful.
Playing in the Big Ten, Sydney started in 10 games and had an impressive freshman campaign, with five pass breakups and 55 tackles . The Brown brothers, joining forces again, played three seasons at Illinois – from 2020 through the 2022 season, walking away as two of the most decorated players in Illini history and, one can only assume, as two of the most productive twin-brother college football teammates of all time.
