Brian married his high-school girlfriend, Katherine Nicastro, in September 1993. The couple divorced in 2006.
They have three children: Chase, Mark, and Hayley.

Brian Keith Bosworth was born on March 9, 1965, in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, to Foster and Kathy Bosworth.
Brian was only 18 months old when his family moved to Irving, Texas. He was only 6 years old when he started playing football for his father’s ‘Young Men's Christian Association’ (YMCA) team.
He attended Irving’s ‘MacArthur High School’ and played as a defensive end there. He wore jersey number 89 and played as a senior captain.
He earned a full 4-year scholarship to the ‘University of Oklahoma.’ He was also offered the same from the ‘Southern Methodist University’ and ‘Texas Tech.’
From 1984 to 1986, he played for the university, where he was recognized as a unanimous ‘All-American’ in 1985 and 1986. He redshirted his freshman season at the university but started getting attention after he featured in the line-up.
In his first game, he intercepted a pass in the third quarter, which led to his team’s victory over ‘Stanford’ by 19–7. His team started the season with 4–0 and was soon ranked third.
After rising to the third spot, his team headed into the ‘Red River’ rivalry game against top-ranked ‘Texas.’ In what became one of the most controversial ‘OU’–‘Texas’ games of all time, the teams ended with a 15–15 tie.
After winning over top-ranked ‘Nebraska’ and third-ranked ‘Oklahoma State,’ ‘OU’ finished 9–2–1. ‘OU’ thus shared the ‘Big 8’ title.
Although, he was a great player, his off-the-field controversial comments and actions got Brian more fame and attention than his game. He referred to the ‘NCAA’ as the “National Communists Against Athletes” a number of times.
He has also worked as a commentator for ‘XFL’ and ‘UPN.’ He wrote his autobiography, ‘The Boz,’ with ‘Sports Illustrated’ columnist Ricky Reilly.
In 2010, Brian became a real-estate agent for ‘Sotheby's International Realty’ in their Malibu brokerage office.
