EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. - Dec 8, 2024 – As part of the NFL's ongoing commitment to develop talent and build relationships across the league's leadership, the NFL will host its Front Office & General Manager Accelerator Program from December 9-11 at the league meeting in Irving, Texas.

The New York Giants are proud to announce that assistant general manager Brandon Brown is invited to participate in the Accelerator.

This year's Accelerator marks the sixth iteration of this program and follows the 2024 Coach Accelerator that was held at the Spring League Meeting in Nashville, Tennessee.

Brown and 34 other highly qualified candidates across player personnel, football operations, and assistant general manager roles were selected to participate in the Accelerator program. Through a series of leadership development workshops and networking sessions led by renowned academic leaders and industry experts, candidates will leave with valuable insights and practical tools to support their journey to future leadership roles.

Brown is in his third season as the Giants' Assistant General Manager. He is the top associate of General Manager Joe Schoen.

Brown, 35, was instrumental in the 2022 roster renovation that enabled the Giants to finish 9-7-1 and earned their first postseason berth in six years.

Prior to joining the Giants in 2022, Brown spent five seasons with the Philadelphia Eagles. He was promoted to the team's director of player personnel in 2021. In that role, Brown oversaw the Eagles' pro scouting department and did crossover work on the college scouting side.

Brown joined the Eagles in 2017 and was the assistant director of pro scouting in his first two seasons with the team. In 2019, he was promoted to the director of pro scouting, a position he also held for two years.

Before his tenure with the Eagles, Brown spent two seasons with the Indianapolis Colts as an advance scout (2016) and scouting assistant (2015).

He joined the Colts after spending two years at Boston College, first as a recruiting specialist (2013) and then as the assistant director of player personnel (2014).

In 2012, Brown was a pro personnel intern in the Jets' training camp.

A four-year letterman as a defensive back at Fordham University, Brown earned his bachelor's degree in business administration with a dual concentration in entrepreneurship and communications media management. In addition, Brown was a two-time all-Patriot League academic selection.

After graduating from Fordham in 2010, Brown earned a Juris Doctor degree from Barry University Law School in Orlando, Fla.

While pursuing his law degree at Barry, Brown worked as athletic compliance graduate assistant/football support at the University of Central Florida, where he was named lead articles editor of the Earth Jurisprudence and Environmental Justice Law Journal and was a member of the Black Law Student Association and Sports Law Society.

Brown is a native of Glen Cove, N.Y., on Long Island. He attended St. Anthony's High School in South Huntington, where he was a Sports Illustrated Northeast All-American in 2003 and was named to Prepstar Magazine's All-Region team and the NY Daily News' All-Suburban team.

"Brandon is an outstanding leader and great teammate," Schoen said. "His ability to maintain and help coordinate the lines of communication throughout our football operations is invaluable. He is a tremendous asset."
