A four-year Montana starter who helped anchor the Grizzlies' run to the FCS semifinals before signing on with Cincinnati.
Liam Brown spent his entire college career in Missoula, developing into one of the Big Sky's steadiest offensive linemen. He went undrafted in 2026 but signed a three-year deal with the Cincinnati Bengals, who see a powerful, scheme-diverse guard prospect in the 6-foot-5, 310-pounder.
Path to the league
Brown started 43 of his 52 career games on the Montana offensive line over four seasons with the Grizzlies. He went unselected in the 2026 NFL draft and signed a three-year contract with the Cincinnati Bengals as an undrafted free agent, joining the team as an offensive guard.
Career highlights
Brown earned second-team All-Big Sky honors as a senior and was a key piece of a Montana offensive line that helped push the Grizzlies to the semifinals of the FCS Playoffs. At 6-foot-5 and 310 pounds, he projects best in an inside zone, duo and power-based blocking scheme that lets him use his frame and strength.
2025 season recap
In his final season with the Grizzlies, Brown anchored the interior line as Montana made its FCS Playoff semifinal run, earning second-team All-Big Sky recognition for his play. That senior season established him as one of the more scheme-diverse guard prospects available outside the draft's top rounds.
