A former Jacksonville Jaguars player took a step toward entering the restaurant business Thursday when a Downtown Investment Authority committee voted to recommend an incentive for his proposed brunch establishment.

Marcus Stroud, a defensive lineman for the Jaguars from 2001 through 2007, plans to open Baby Got Brunch in a single-story, 5,000-square-foot space at 610 N. Julia St. It’s part of the Residences at City Place condominiums at 311 W. Ashley St.
