NFL legend Jim Brown has died at the age of 84. The former Cleveland Browns running back is widely regarded as one of the greatest football players of all time, with 12,312 rushing yards and 106 rushing touchdowns. Brown also spent time as a social activist, using his platform to protest against civil rights issues. This legacy is complicated by accusations of domestic violence that he faced in his personal life. Brown later pursued a career in acting and continued to advocate for minority representation, despite his controversial past.
