Wisconsin safety Austin Brown shows out freakish skills on Pro Day
MADISON – Luke Fickell has long been a fan of Austin Brown’s potential.
The Wisconsin football coach sung the praises of the senior safety before last season and reiterated that opinion after an 11-tackle performance in a Week 3 loss to Alabama.
“He’s one of the more talented guys I think we have on the entire team,” Fickell said in September. “As far as speed, size, ability to run, ability to tackle, he’s one of those guys that I’ve always kept saying, your ability is everything that they’re looking for at the next level. Your ability to show that is what’s going to be the biggest difference.”
Brown was one of the iron men of the Wisconsin defense in 2025. He played 672 snaps, according to Pro Football Focus, second only to cornerback Ricardo Hallman. His presence was especially key given the season-ended injury to field safety Preston Zachman
Brown finished fourth on the Badgers with 53 tackles and earned an invitation to the East-West Shrine Bowl. He started for the West in the Shrine Bowl, played 32 snaps and finished with one tackle in a 21-17 victory for over the East.
Friday March 6 at the McClain Center the Badgers held their Pro Day, a perfect time to shine for a player who was listed as one of athletic freaks in college football by The Athletic last summer.
Brown didn’t disappoint.
Unofficially Brown posted the No. 1 vertical of the day, 43 feet, the No. 2 broad jump (10-9), the second fastest 40-yard dash (4.47 seconds), the third-fastest shuttle run (4.21) and the fifth-best three cone drill time (7.05).
He also benched 225 pounds 20 times, which put himself behind some of UW’s linemen and tight end Lance Mason – Ben Barten did it 33 times – but it was better than any safeties or cornerback invited to the NFL Combine.
Brown has been training at X3 Performance in Fort Myers, Fla.
“I’m not satisfied by any means, but I’m happy with my overall performance,” Brown said. “On my vertical I did really good. I wanted to get another inch or two, but you can only get so much. On my bench, I wanted to get 20, and I lost some weight, so I didn’t want to lose any strength with that.”
Brown, who is 6-foot-1, played at about 215 pounds last season. He said he weighed 209 when he started training for the draft and was at 200 pounds with 8% body fat Friday.
“I had a lot of meetings with scouts just through the postseason stuff, Shrine Bowl and all that so I got to talk to a lot of them personally,” Brown said. “(Today) I just wanted to show them my athletic ability across the board overall, and I feel like I did that.”
What Brown showed during his college career was the ability to fill a variety of roles. It is the kind of the experience that could pay off for an NFL hopeful.
“I feel like versatility is one of my best strengths,” he said. “I’ve played both safety spots. I’ve played dime, I’ve played nickel when I started my junior year. I’ve played every special team, so I feel like versatility is one of my great strengths and that’s something I can hang my hat on.”

Ex-Wisconsin fullback Alec Ingold cut by Miami Dolphins
Analysis: Packers GM Brian Gutekunst talking Rich Bisaccia at NFL combine
Pete Dougherty joins Dominique Yates to analyze news of Rich Bisaccia stepping down as Packers special-teams coordinator at the NFL scouting combine.
Alec Ingold, a Pro Bowl fullback for the Miami Dolphins, former Badger and graduate of Bay Port High School in the Green Bay area, is reportedly on the market.
NFL insider Mike Garafolo said Ingold and Miami are parting ways, and he’s free to sign with a new team immediately.
Ingold spent the last four seasons with the Dolphins, including a Pro Bowl year in 2023, after three years with the Las Vegas Raiders. He’s primarily a blocking back but does have 75 career receptions and six all-purpose touchdowns in his career.
Ingold is also a three-time nominee for the Walter Payton Man of the Year Award. His Ingold Family Foundation advocates and financially supports children in the child welfare system, providing education, support and access to opportunities. He has authored a book, developed curriculum around overcoming adversity and works with SOS Children’s Villages Florida, a residential foster care community in Florida.
At the University of Wisconsin, Ingold moved from linebacker to running back as a freshman in 2015 and played in 51 career games, with 11 starts at fullback. He ran for 17 career touchdowns at Wisconsin from 2015 through 2018 and caught four touchdown passes.
Ingold was at the 2025 NFL Draft in Green Bay, announcing a Dolphins pick on Day 2.
