Brown is trying to adjust to the speed of the game. https://www.google.com/amp/www.firstcoastnews.com/amp/spo...

"The practice structure, it's a lot different from the transition from college to the NFL," Brown said on Thursday.

"It's just so much faster. The first day - actually the first couple of days I was out here - it was kind of hard to keep up, but I feel like I'm getting used to it. Yeah, it's way faster than college."

I wish/hope the OHIO coaches contact Brown and ask about the practice structure so that they can build a system that doesn't make that transition (at least in structure, not talent-wise) so large. This comment was concerning and telling.

Who would expect the "practice structure" in college to be like that of the NFL?

Yeah, it's almost like the NFL has better players or something.

You've obviously never attended an NFL practice. The speed is the other guys on the field and their athletic abilities
