Baltimore Ravens wide receiver John Brown is fast fast. Like, speeding bullet fast.
He could run the 40-yard dash in less time (4.34 seconds) than it probably took you to read that first sentence, so it’s not surprising he’s the NFL’s third-leading receiver in terms of yards per catch, gaining nearly 20 yards every time he touches the ball.
But Carolina Panthers cornerback Donte Jackson held him to 28 yards on three catches during Sunday’s 36-21 Panthers victory. Turns out there is a way to stop a speeding bullet — Jackson told Mike Adams the secret before the game.
