After asking for a trade from the Eagles, Brown was sent to the Los Angeles Rams in a five-player trade on May 12, 1969. The Eagles traded Brown, along with cornerback Jim Nettles, to the Rams in exchange for offensive tackle Joe Carollo, guard Don Chuy and defensive back Irv Cross.
The 1969 Rams won their first 11 games of 69 and then lost their next 3 games to the Vikings, Lions & Colts. Did qualify for the playoffs, which was in Bloomington Minnesota and although the Rams had a halftime lead, came up short in losing to Joe Kapp & the Vikings by a score of 23-20. As it always seemed the Rams had to play Minnesota in Minnesota before there was ever a roof.
