Lomas Brown Jr. (born May 30, 1963 in Miami, Florida) is a former American football offensive tackle for the National Football League. He played college football at the University of Florida in the early 1980s, where he anchored what was dubbed "The Great Wall of Florida" in 1984. In his long professional career he played for the Detroit Lions (1985-1995), Arizona Cardinals (1996-1998), Cleveland Browns (1999), New York Giants (2000-2001), and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (2002), with whom he won a Super Bowl before retiring. Brown was named to the NFC Pro Bowl team seven times, every year following the 1990-96 seasons. Since his retirement he has spent some time with the NFL Network and ESPNEWS as an analyst and also co-hosts a sports radio show in Detroit for WXYT.

He was eligible for election to the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2008 but didn't make the first cut.

Lomas is married to Wendy Brown and currently resides in south east Michigan. He is also a member of Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity, Inc.
