BRIAN SMITH
LINEBACKER #53
CLEVELAND BROWNS
When my senior season did not go as planned, a lot of agents that wanted me before were nowhere to be found. At the end of the season when it was time for me to pick an agent, I asked a lot of people who would be the best person to represent me in my situation. All of them said the same person - Eugene Lee. When I linked up with Eugene and ETL there was an instant connection. I immediately knew that they were all about business and about helping me to have a successful career in the NFL. Eugene has a lot of connections that have provided me with housing and physical and mental training. His connections have put me in a position to 'do work' on the next level and I look forward to continuing to work with Eugene and ETL.
Versatility will allow him to play both ILB and OLB. Can stack TEs when lined up outside while disrupting the run on the interior. Explosive edge rusher who will apply consistent pressure on the quarterback.
