Wichita Native Bryce Brown Drafted By Eagles

Reporter: Associated Press

The Philadelphia Eagles have selected Kansas State running back Bryce Brown with their final pick of the NFL draft.

Kansas State now has had at least one player selected in the NFL Draft for the past 19 years in a row.

The 6-foot, 220-pound Brown ran for 460 yards as a freshman at
Tennessee before transferring to Kansas State. He sat out 2010 and
carried only three times for 16 yards before leaving the team in
September.

Brown is the ninth player chosen by the Eagles and was the 229th
player selected overall. The Eagles acquired this pick from Atlanta
for perennial Pro Bowl cornerback Asante Samuel earlier in the
week.
