Now Healthy, Versatile Jordon Brown is UNC's Featured Back

Posted Oct 4, 2017
After being injured for much of the offseason, UNC running back Jordon Brown is now earning the majority of the reps for the Tar Heels, head coach Larry Fedora said Monday. Brown is coming off his second game of the year with nine catches and leads the Tar Heels with 20 receptions on the year. But the most important aspect of Brown's game this season may be his health.
