Player to Watch in Week 4 of AUDL: Calvin Brown

Calvin Brown, Los Angeles Aviators

Calvin Brown has come out firing in 2021, building on a solid 2019 rookie campaign where he totaled 22 scores and recorded three blocks in six games. With a relatively depleted roster from years past, Calvin has taken it upon himself to facilitate the Los Angeles Aviators offense, averaging over 50 completions (up from 25.3 in 2019) and 4.5 assists per contest. The 20-year-old is in clear command of the offense and has an incredibly high ceiling, but—to quote the late Uncle Ben, specifically the one from “Spider-man” (2002) a.k.a. the best Spiderman movie released this century—with great power, comes great responsibility. Brown has seen his completion percentage dip from 95.6 percent in 2019 to 88.1 percent thus far in 2021, already exceeding his total throwaways from last season. He and the rest of the Aviators offense are going to have to take care of the disc in a big rematch vs. Dallas; if Brown can limit turnovers while maintaining the confidence and aggressiveness to get the disc downfield, LA could be in position for a shocking upset.
