Some players know each other like the back of their hands. They've faced off so frequently that they recognize each other's tendencies, strengths and weaknesses. But some players have a connection that's on a whole other level.
That's the case for NFL players Chase Brown and Sydney Brown . The two not only know each other, but they grew up together . They were born together.
They're identical twins. Born two minutes apart on March 21, 2000, in London, Ontario, the two brothers played together in pee wee leagues and later became football stars together for the Illinois Fighting Illini . Their paths continued to intertwine with the NFL, when they both were drafted in 2023.
Sydney, a safety, was a third-round pick with the Philadelphia Eagles , while Chase, a running back, was selected two rounds later by the Cincinnati Bengals . As the pair prepare to square off on opposite sides of the ball, here's a list of other twins who have left their mark on professional sports: NFL Ronde and Tiki Barber Daniel and Josh Bullocks Keith and Kerry Cash Shaquill and Shaquem Griffin Devin and Jason McCourty Devon and Ricardo McDonald Maurkice and Mike Pouncey Rex and Rob Ryan Rich and Ron Saul NBA Jarron and Jason Collins Joey and Stephen Graham Harvey and Horace Grant Aaron and Andrew Harrison Brook and Robin Lopez Caleb and Cody Martin Marcus and Markieff Morris Keegan and Kris Murray Amen and Ausar Thompson Dıck and Tom Van Arsdale Editor's Picks Which cities have won multiple sports titles in a year? 9d Joe DeAndrea What are the winningest regions in sports? 124d Keith Jenkins Stadiums, arenas that are home to more than one sports team 7d Keith Jenkins MLB Jose and Ozzie Canseco Stan and Stew Cliburn Marshall and Mike Edwards Ray and Roy Grimes George and Bill Hunter Bubber and Claude Jonnard Damon and Ryan Minor Eddie and Johnny O'Brien Taylor and Tyler Rogers Joe and Red Shannon NHL Henrik and Joel Lundqvist Chris and Peter Ferraro Daniel and Henrik Sedin Rich and Ron Sutter WNBA Heather and Heidi Burge Coco and Kelly Miller Ashley and Courtney Paris Soccer Frank and Ronald de Boer René and Willy van de Kerkhof Tennis Herbert and Wilfred Baddeley Bob and Mike Bryan Olympics Morgan and Paul Hamm, gymnastics Alvin and Calvin Harrison, track and field Karen and Sarah Josephson, artistic swimming Phil and Steve Mahre, skiing Valentyna and Vita Semerenko, skiing NASCAR Amber and Angela Cope.
