Miami rookie TE Brown skipped college NFL

Never mind that Miami rookie Les Brown hasn't played competitive football since 2005.
Never mind that he played college NFL basketball instead and recently worked for an equity firm.
While Brown has impressed his Dolphins' teammates and coaches by making it to training camp, that's not good enough for the tight end.
''Every day I wake up and I cheap authentic jerseys thank the NFL Lord for this opportunity,'' Brown said. ''But at the end of the day, I've got to be out here and I can't look at it as some big dream. I'm here, I have to work hard and play hard.''

The Dolphins (No. 27 in the AP Pro32) signed Brown in April after he took part in the Pro Day at Brigham Young University, where two of his brothers play football.
He trained in Hawaii along with 11 nfl jerseys cheap other NFL hopefuls and wowed scouts with a performance that included a 4.43 in the 40-yard dash, an impressive speed for someone listed at 6-foot-4, 245 pounds.
The trick is turning that athletic ability into production on the field.
''This is kind of a brave new world for him,'' Dolphins coach Joe Philbin said. ''You could probably watch a couple of NFL plays and say, 'Boy this guy doesn't fit in.' Conversely, you could watch a couple of plays and think he's a five-year veteran. So I think there's a little bit of both.''
