In Carroll Senior High School's first ever 4A playoff game in 1994, Brown kicked four field goals, including a long of 50 yards, and the unranked Dragons defeated No.

Brown remained with the Steelers through the 2001 season, but had a crucial field goal blocked in the AFC Championship game that was returned for a touchdown.

On Christmas Eve 2006, Brown nailed a 48-yard field goal as time expired to give the Texans their first-ever win over the Indianapolis Colts.

Brown kicked five field goals on October 7, 2007, against the Miami Dolphins at home, including the game-winner on a career-long 57-yarder with one second remaining.

Neil Rackers, Connor Barth, Morten Andersen, Sebastian Janikowski, Phil Dawson, Josh Scobee, Blair Walsh, Chris Boswell, and Tyler Bass are the only other kickers to kick three field goals of 50+ yards in a single game.

On December 31, 2010, Brown was signed to a two-year contract by the Dallas Cowboys, who were looking for him to compete the next year with David Buehler for the kicker job, so he was declared inactive for the last game of the season against the Philadelphia Eagles.

On July 28, 2011, he was released after the team decided to sign undrafted free agent Kai Forbath and not have to pay Brown's scheduled $911,000 salary.

[4] In August 2012, a report from The Kansas City Star mentioned that Brown's company, Savoreaux, Inc. was holding a job fair for his Dunkin Donuts locations that had recently opened.
