Brent Forrest Stockstill (born August 5, 1994) is an American football coach and former player who is currently a defensive analyst for the Indianapolis Colts of the National Football League (NFL). A former quarterback at Middle Tennessee, he set multiple career program records including passing yards, touchdown passes, completed passes, and pass attempts. Stockstill had also obtained a reputation for being one of the toughest players in college football for his ability to play while being hindered by injuries.




Early life


Stockstill was born in South Carolina to Rick and Sara Stockstill. Rick was an assistant coach at Clemson at the time. When Rick was an assistant coach, he would pull Brent out of school on Fridays to accompany him on recruiting trips and visits. He has a younger sister, Emily who attended the University of Alabama and worked for the university's football program. The Stockstills moved to Murfreesboro, Tennessee in 2005 when Rick was named the head coach at Middle Tennessee State.
Stockstill played quarterback at Siegel High School in Tennessee where as a high school senior, he threw for 2,690 yards and 32 touchdowns. One of his notable games was where he threw for 373 yards and four touchdowns in a loss, despite tearing his ACL and partially tearing his meniscus the week prior. A two to three-star recruit, Stockstill committed to play college football at Cincinnati over offers from Texas Tech, Memphis, Western Michigan, and Toledo.




College career


Initially committed to Cincinnati, Stockstill was granted a release from his national letter of intent to play for his father Rick at Middle Tennessee State. He also was a member of the school's baseball program, where he compiled a 1.69 ERA as a pitcher in 2014 and later redshirting to focus on football.
