Brian was raised in Irving, Texas where he was educated at MacArthur School. While studying there he played football, though his memories are marked by a tense relationship with his father, who wanted his son to play perfectly. Bosworth continued his career playing in the team of the University of Oklahoma (1984–1986), during which period he became Consensus All-American twice and was named Academic All-American. More, Brian Bosworth became the winner of two Dick Butkus Awards, setting the record to be the first player who won more than one accolade. On the other hand, Bosworth had problems because of anabolic steroid usage, and was barred from playing while still being a college student.
Preceding the 1987 NFL draft, Bosworth wrote letters to a number of teams declaring that if they chose him, he wouldn’t play for them. During the drafts period, Brian was chosen as a joke by the Tacoma Stars soccer team, but later was drafted to the Seattle Seahawks (one of teams he wrote the letter to). Although Bosworth didn’t initially show willing to play for the previously mentioned team, he eventually signed the biggest contract in the history of the team, $11 million for ten years. However, he played in the position of the linebacker of the above mentioned team only for three seasons, as the player was forced to retire after suffering the major injuries tof his shoulders. Still, football was a significant source of Brian Bosworth’s net worth.
After retiring from the professional sport, Bosworth started his career as an actor, debuting in the lead role of the action film “Stone Cold” (1991) directed by Craig R. Baxley. Although the film received poor reviews and failed in the box office, Bosworth continued his career. He starred in Allan A. Goldstein’s films “Spill” (1996), “Midnight Heat” (1996), “Blackout” (1997), Philippe Mora’s “Back in Business”, David O. Russell’s “Three Kings” (1999), Bryan Goeres’ “The Operative” (2000) and other films. However, the most successful film Bosworth starred in was “The Longest Yard” (2005) directed by Peter Segal which grossed $190.3 in the box office.
Additionally, he worked as a commentator for XFL as well as a studio analyst for Turner Sports. He then landed a role in the television series “Blue Mountain State” (2010). Working on the television and cinema screens has added significant sums to the outright size of Brian Bosworth’s net worth.
Since 2010, Brian has been working as a real estate agent in Malibu. This has also increased his wealth.
Finally, in the personal life of Brian Bosworth, he married his high school sweetheart, Katherine Nicastro in 1993, and they have three children together. However, the two divorced in 2006. He subsequently married Morgan Leslie Heuman in 2012.
