With the score locked at 20 and just over three minutes left in the fourth quarter, Jayden Daniels delivered a clutch pass to Dyami Brown. Later, Zane Gonzalez was set up for the 37-yard field goal attempt. And what came next was the “Doink Heard ‘Round the World’,” sealing the game in dramatic fashion.

But not only once! Wide receiver Dyami Brown made sure to deliver his exceptional performance multiple times in the wildcard round against the Buccaneers. As a result, the Washington Commanders are now into the divisional round after 18 years, defeating the Bucs. Surprisingly, that 18 years ago’s win for Washington, too, was against the Bucs. And for Brown, it’s his first career postseason game. Washington is proud of the WR, but who could be prouder of him than his parents?

Who are Dyami Brown’s parents, Tamiko and Charles?

Prematurely born on November 1, 1999, in Charlotte, North Carolina, to mom Tamiko Patterson and dad Charles Brown, Dyami Brown is one among five children of the couple. The NFL athlete’s younger brother, Khafre, also follows his brother’s path. Yes! He is the wide receiver at North Carolina. But all their children’s big support were Tamiko and Charles.

By profession, Dyami Brown’s father, Charles, is a football coach. Hence, obviously, he helped his children to succeed in their football careers, supporting them throughout their journey. On the other hand, Brown’s mother, Tamiko, is reportedly an artist by profession. However, she has been dealing with chronic health issues.

Unfortunately, Tamiko has been a kidney patient for almost three decades. To make it worse, she has even undergone multiple kidney transplants, reportedly perhaps twice. However, still, she is a strong mother who has been with her children at any phase of their lives. Probably, that’s why, Dyami Brown is much closer to his momma than others.

How did Dyami Brown’s parents help him in his football career?

As Dyami Brown’s father, Charles Brown, is a football coach, he made sure to use this in his children’s upbringing. How? Well, he provides valuable insights related to football to his sons, helping them grow in the sport since their childhood. In addition, despite the health challenges, momma Tamiko Patterson also supported Brown by asking him to keep his head straight, avoiding any trouble coming his way.

When Dyami Brown was selected in the third round in the 2021 NFL draft, he received an emotional letter from his mom. In that note, Tomiko wrote, “My first moment of knowing you were destined to play football was when you entered that football field at a very young age – under the 7/8 year old age group – with a passion in your eyes and a willingness of your own to study the sport of football. To not only play the sport of football, but actually study the sport of football.” And hence, since that time, Tomiko promised herself to support Brown through thick and thin.

Now that Dyami Brown is about to play his second postseason game of his career, his parents are one hundred percent sure that he will do wonders. Why? Well, it’s because they have full confidence and pride in him.
