There are UCLA Bruins all over the NFL. From players to coaches, there is no shortage of UCLA alums at the pro level.
One former Bruins cornerback, Trey Brown, the current senior personnel executive for the Cincinnati Bengals, looks to become a hot commodity for teams in 2025. Brown played for the Bruins from 2003 to 2007 before going un-drafted in 2008
After declining an interview with the New England Patriots for their general manager vacancy, Brown will remain with the Bengals for 2024. But with him looking to move on to another team in the near future, Brown is a top candidate for teams in the season after next, according to Tom Pelissero of the NFL Network.
#Bengals senior personnel executive Trey Brown has declined a request to interview for the #Patriots de facto GM position, per source. Brown will remain a top GM candidate in next year’s cycle.

This year’s cycle was as busy as ever with a number of changes by a lot of teams across the NFL. The 2025 cycle could be busy as well depending on how the regular season goes.
