Jalil Brown is entering his first season as a full-time assistant coach at Boise State in 2019, serving as the Broncos’ cornerbacks coach.

A former All-Big-12 cornerback at Colorado that spent six seasons in the National Football League, Brown spent the 2018 season at Northern Arizona – his first season as a collegiate assistant.

Brown spent time at Boise State before joining the Lumberjacks, serving as an assistant strength and conditioning coach in 2017 before moving to a defensive analyst role following the season.

In his lone season with NAU, the Lumberjacks led the Big Sky Conference in passing defense (179.7 yards per game) and ranked 13th nationally among FCS schools. NAU also led the Big Sky and was sixth in the country with 17 interceptions. Cornerbacks Khalil Dorsey (first team) and Maurice Davison (third team) were each named All-Big Sky.

A four-year letterwinner as a cornerback at Colorado (2007-10), Brown received honorable mention All-Big 12 honors as a fourth-year junior and fifth-year senior. He recorded 167 tackles in his career to go along with six interceptions and 21 passes defended.

Brown was a captain as a senior and was invited to the 2011 Senior Bowl. He was a fourth-round selection (118th overall) by the Kansas City Chiefs in the 2011 NFL Draft. During his professional career, he spent time with the Chiefs, Indianapolis Colts and Miami Dolphins.

He graduated from Colorado in 2010 with a double major in sociology and business management.
