Gary Brown, who spent seven seasons as the Dallas Cowboys' running backs coach, died Sunday after being treated for cancer. He was 52.
Brown was with the Cowboys from 2013-19 and had three different running backs reach 1,000 yards, including DeMarco Murray, Darren McFadden and Ezekiel Elliott. Murray (2014) and Elliott (2016, '18) won NFL rushing titles under Brown's tutelage.
"Great Father, Husband, Coach, and Mentor. Appreciate you and your family more than anything GB," Murray tweeted. "Thank you for teaching me the way on the field and in life. Appreciate you Gary Brown.
