Is this a brussels sprout plant?

Question

I'm in North Carolina and a couple of these plants just sprouted in my garden. It is currently about 3 feet tall after at most a month of growing.

Because of the leaves my intuition is these are brussels sprouts.

I get more of a broccoli vibe from those leaves. But something in that family, yes — Kate Gregory, Apr 22 '14 at 16:42
The small white butterfly is very adept at identifying brassicas, and will lay her eggs on it. — Graham Chiu, Feb 27 '16 at 20:48

I'd concur that its a brassica of some sort, present from the birds I expect.
