Brown starred at nearby Warren East High School, where he played both running back and linebacker. During his senior season at Warren East, Brown was named first team all-state by the Courier-Journal and the Associated Press. He was also picked for the U.S. Army All-American Bowl, arguably the most prestigious high school football all-star game in the nation.
