Aaron Jamal Brewer (born October 28, 1997) is an American football guard for the Tennessee Titans of the National Football League (NFL). He played college football as an offensive lineman for the Texas State Bobcats. Brewer signed with the Titans as an undrafted free agent in 2020, and he earned a spot on the team's initial 2020 roster.

College career[]

Brewer earned All-District 9-6A First-Team honors playing offensive guard at Skyline High School in Dallas, Texas. Rivals.com rated him as a two-star recruit. Brewer received offers for play for Sam Houston State and Texas State. He ultimately accepted the offer to play at Texas State under head coach Everett Withers, a former defensive backs coach for the Tennessee Titans. In his freshman season, Brewer played in all twelve Texas State games and made eleven starts. In his next three seasons, Brewer started all of the team's 36 games.[1] He earned All-Sun Belt Conference selections every year in college. In his junior year, Pro Football Focus ranked Brewer as the Sun Belt's best run blocker and second-best pass blocker. In his senior season, Brewer received a grade of 82.8 by Pro Football Focus, ranking highest in the conference, and was named to the All-Sun Belt second team.[2]

Professional career[]

Measuring at 6'1" and 275 pounds, Brewer was considered too small to play at the professional level. He was not drafted in the 2020 NFL Draft; however, on May 7, 2020, he signed an undrafted free agent contract with the Tennessee Titans. On September 5, 2020, Brewer earned a spot on the Titan's initial 53-player roster. On November 22, 2020, Brewer recorded his first start of his career when he started at left guard for the Titans against the Baltimore Ravens. He played all 70 offensive snaps in the 30–24 overtime victory. Brewer, along with the rest of the offensive line, helped Titans running back Derrick Henry rush for 133 yards, including a game-winning 33-yard touchdown.[3] Brewer was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list by the team on January 7, 2021,[4] and activated on January 18.[5]
