Charles Robert Brown (born October 16, 1945) is an American former professional football player who was a running back in the National Football League (NFL). He played college football for the Missouri Tigers. He went on to play with the New Orleans Saints from 1967 to 1968.

Following his NFL career, Brown played two additional seasons in the Canadian Football League with the BC Lions.[1]

Personal life

Brown's half-brother Don Webb played defensive back for the Boston Patriots in the 1960s. They were raised in the same household, but because of age difference, their first chance to play against each other in a football game came in a 1968 preseason game between the Patriots and Saints.[2]
