Comcast SportsNet announced this afternoon that former Patriots receiver Troy Brown will join the network as an analyst.

Brown, who announced his retirement from the NFL earlier today after 15 seasons with the Patriots, will make his debut on the "Mohegan Sun Sports Tonight" program this evening at 10 p.m.

In addition to his in-studio work, Brown will focus on feature pieces from Gillette Stadium involving the Patriots and its players during the week.

“I have been asked to do many things during my football career and I believe that my experience in all facets of the game will provide a great foundation for providing what I hope to be expert analysis on the team,” said Brown, 37.

“It feels like my rookie year all over again. I look forward to the challenge as I embark on this new career and as I continue my 15-year relationship with this great community and team.”

Good for him

Troy Brown has always been one of my favorites. He is quick and smart on his feet, a team player, and smart enough to learn defensive and offensive play plans. I wish him well and hope that he is as quick with his thoughts and talk as he was with his mind and body for all those years on the field.

I have missed him for the last two years. I am hoping that there is someone new who will be as good an overall player. Who will be the new Troy Brown? Welker?
