Former Jets player Brown involved in police standoff

GRANGER, Ind. — An apparent standoff at the home of former Jets player and assistant coach Corwin Brown appears to be over.

A firetruck and an ambulance pulled up at the home around 7:45 p.m. Friday. The house had been surrounded for hours by police.

The ambulance left about 10 minutes later. Two SWAT officers began removing their helmets and walking away.

That came after someone used a bullhorn to urge a person inside the home to “Be a Michigan man today. Step up to your obligations.”

Property tax records show the home in Granger is owned by Brown and his wife, Melissa.

Brown was Notre Dame’s defensive coordinator from 2007 to 2009, until head coach Charlie Weis was fired. The 41-year-old coached defensive backs with the New England Patriots last season, but was not retained.

He played defense for the Jets for two seasons (1997-98). He was an assistant coach for three seasons under Herman Edwards and Eric Mangini.
