Eddie Brown (born October 2, 1969), nicknamed "Touchdown", is a former arena football offensive specialist who played for the Albany/Indiana Firebirds of the Arena Football League (AFL) from 1994 to 2003. He played college football at Louisiana Tech.
Brown played for the Albany Firebirds from 1994 until 2000, when he had to retire after the first game of the 2000 season due to the custody battle of his daughter.[2] In his time in Albany, Eddie won ArenaBowl XIII in 1999 and won ArenaBowl MVP. He also won the AFL's Most Valuable Player award in 1994.[3] Eddie unretired when the Firebirds franchise moved to Indianapolis, Indiana where he played for three more seasons until 2003, and retired in 2004 after being cut by the Firebirds. In January 2006, as the AFL celebrated its 20th anniversary, Brown was voted the best player in league history.[4] [5] On August 12, 2011, Brown was named as an inductee into the AFL Hall of Fame.
Brown is the father of NFL wide receiver Antonio Brown.[6]
