Tim Brown, the 1987 Heisman Trophy winner who played for Notre Dame, just sold his Manhattan Beach town house for $975,000.
Brown, 40, retired last year as a wide receiver and moved to Texas, near Dallas, where he was born. He does not need a 1,937-square-foot second home in California for the occasional commentary he does for Fox Sports, he has said.
So he sold the tri-level town house he had owned since 1989. He had used the three-bedroom unit, built in 1984, for most of his 17 years in the NFL. He played for the L.A. Raiders from 1988 to 1994, then moved to Oakland with the team in 1995. After that, the town home was used primarily by extended family.
He called himself "Mr. Raider'' for his many years with the L.A. and Oakland football team. He may be working now on becoming "Mr. NASCAR,'' through his Tim Brown Racing team.
Brown sold the unit to Robbie Davis, a Laker trainer, and his wife, Wendy, a Clippers Spirit Dance Team member.
