Let's make this birthday one to remember.

40 years old (Born on August 30, 1985)

Happy Birthday, Duane Brown! You're the only guy we know who can pancake defenders on Sunday and still have enough energy left to blow out all those candles. Drafted 26th overall by Houston in 2008, you've been protecting quarterbacks like they're family heirlooms ever since—earning back-to-back Pro Bowl nods in 2012 and 2013.

Whether you're bulldozing defensive linemen or casually making pass rushers reconsider their career choices, your talent is timeless. Here's hoping your birthday celebration has fewer penalties than a Texans game—and way more cake! Keep tackling life with style; age can't sack greatness like yours.
