Patience pays off for Chargers RB Donald Brown

SAN DIEGO -- Like his play on the field, San Diego Chargers running back Donald Brown is not a flashy guy who likes to talk about himself.

Sometimes you need a hype man.

“He’s a good football player,” said good friend Danny Woodhead as he walked by Brown in the locker room during an interview, coaxing a smile out of San Diego’s new every-down running back.

Brown also is a man of patience. Even though he's making $2.3 million this year, Brown served as the team’s No. 4 running back for most of 2015.
