Former Missouri football long snapper Beau Brinkley is playing in the AFC Championship for the first time in his career this weekend.
The 2012 undrafted free agent has played all eight of his NFL seasons with the Tennessee Titans. This year he signed a four-year contract extension and is becoming one of the best players in the NFL at his position.
Brinkley is a Pro Bowl alternate this year. If he had it his way, he won’t be in the 2020 Pro Bowl next week anyway. That’s because he is on one of four teams that have a shot at becoming champions.
