How many brothers did Joey Browner have?
Vikings star, Joey Browner, had five brothers, all of whom were exceptional athletes, each earning high school All-American honours and playing major college football. Having siblings with similar interests and career goals is very rare; however, it was the reality for the brothers. Four out of the six, Ross, Jimmie, Keith and the late, Joey played in the National Football League (NFL). The other two made their mark in college football.
