Gary Brown, who rushed for 4,300 yards while playing on three NFL teams before going on to coach Cowboys running backs, has died.
- Gary Brown, a former coach for the Dallas Cowboys and college student athletes, has died. The 52 year old died on Sunday in Pennsylvania in hospice care -- where he'd been for several weeks due to increasing health issues stemming from his longtime battle with cancer.
When Brown worked as the Cowboys' running backs coach on Jason Garrett's staff, DeMarco Murray and Ezekiel Elliott each won NFL rushing titles and Darren McFadden had a 1,000-yard season. The Cowboys averaged at least 4 ½ yards per carry in each of Brown's seven seasons. He spent the 2020 season away from football, with his wife disclosing on social media at the time that a tumor had been found around the bile duct and head of Brown's pancreas. Brown had dealt with colon and liver cancer about a decade earlier.
After taking the 2020 season off, Brown coached Wisconsin's running backs last season. Brown played a big role in the emergence of Braelon Allen, who ran for 1,268 yards and eight touchdowns his freshman season after most schools had recruited him to play safety or linebacker.
