Brady Christensen (born September 27, 1996) is an American football offensive guard for the Carolina Panthers of the National Football League (NFL). He played college football at BYU and was drafted by the Panthers in the third round of the 2021 NFL Draft.

Early life and high school

Christensen grew up in Bountiful, Utah, and attended Bountiful High School. Christensen was rated a two-star recruit and originally committed to play college football at the US Air Force Academy before changing his commitment to BYU. After graduating from Bountiful and prior to attending BYU, he served a 2-year mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Hamilton, New Zealand, from 2015 to 2016.[1]

College career

Christensen redshirted his true freshman season at BYU after returning from his mission. He became the Cougars' starting left tackle going into his redshirt freshman season and started every game for them over the next two seasons.[1][2] As a redshirt junior, he was named a consensus first-team All-American.[3][4][5] Following the end of the season, he announced that he would forgo his remaining collegiate eligibility to enter the 2021 NFL Draft.[6]
