Eli Brown, who started five games for Kentucky in 2017, announced his transfer from the UK Football program on Feb. 9.
He has found a new home.
Brown announced via Twitter on Saturday that he will be joining the Western Kentucky football program. The former UK linebacker is a former standout at Warren East high school, located in Bowling Green, Ky.
Brown was set to enter his junior season with the Wildcats. Brown received a jump in snaps when Jordan Jones injured his shoulder early last season. Jones’ injury allowed Brown to start at weakside linebacker.
