Three former Hilltoppers got the chance to continue their football careers at the next level this week, as tight end Mik'Quan Deane, defensive back Joe Brown III and defensive back DeAndre Farris each signed contracts with professional clubs in the United States and Canada.
On Monday, the Ottawa Redblacks of the Canadian Football League officially announced the signings of both Brown and Farris.
Brown last played for WKU in 2017, when he earned a Conference USA Honorable Mention nod after collecting 36 total tackles, 2 picks, 2 fumble recoveries and a sack as a senior.
