Jesse Brown barely qualified for the 2020 Wrangler National Finals Rodeo but this year, he goes into his second NFR ranked No. 2 in the PRCA World Standings.

Brown got the right start to the season with a check from the Sandhills Stock Show and Rodeo (Texas) and took that momentum right into the San Antonio Stock Show and Rodeo. Between February and March, Brown added $5,054 to his earnings.
