News

  • One carry vs. Chicago

    Brooks rushed once for four yards during Saturday's 22-16 overtime loss to the Bears.

    Analysis: The 25-year-old played 15 offensive snaps and primarily served as Green Bay's top pass-blocking running back during Saturday's loss. In 15 games this season, Brooks has rushed 14 times for 45 yards and caught 12 of 15 targets for 80 yards. The BYU product could serve as the Packers' No. 2 RB in the Week 17 matchup against the Ravens if Josh Jacobs (knee) is sidelined.

  • Active for Saturday night

    Brooks (chest) is listed as active for Saturday night's game against the Bears, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.

    Analysis: With No. 3 running back MarShawn Lloyd (hamstring) on injured reserve, Brooks will have the chance to draw rotational snaps for the Packers' run game behind starters Josh Jacobs and Emanuel Wilson. In last week's loss to the Broncos, Brooks had 17 offensive snaps, which led to two rushes for 10 yards as well as two targets for a six-yard reception.

  • Questionable for Saturday at CHI

    Brooks (chest) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Bears, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

    Analysis: Brooks isn't the only banged-up Packers running back, as Josh Jacobs (knee) is listed as questionable and MarShawn Lloyd (hamstring) has been ruled out. Jacobs expects to play Saturday, so Brooks will likely be left to split backup duties with Emanuel Wilson at best, if he plays at all following three limited practices.

  • Another limited practice

    Brooks (chest) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.

    Analysis: Brooks has been limited in back-to-back practices to begin Week 16 preparations, though Green Bay only held a walk-through session Tuesday. The change-of-pace back will have one more opportunity to prove he can mange full practice reps prior to Saturday's road matchup against the Bears.

  • Dealing with chest issue

    Brooks (chest) was estimated as a limited participant for the Packers' walkthrough practice Tuesday.

    Analysis: Brooks was a bit more involved in the offense in Week 15 with Josh Jacobs playing through a lingering knee injury, but it looks like he might have hurt his chest during Sunday's game. He still has two more chances to log a full practice before Green Bay releases its final practice report of the week Thursday.

  • Limited to lone reception

    Wilson was targeted once and caught one pass for six yards in Sunday's 28-21 victory over the Bears.

    Analysis: Brooks got a season-high 29 snaps in Week 12 with starting running back Josh Jacobs unavailable, and he still logged 18 the following week with Jacobs back in action. However, he was on the field for only eight plays in Sunday's contest. Fellow reserve Emanuel Wilson received just as many, but he did get three touches compared to only the one for Brooks. Brooks should continue seeing a few snaps on passing downs, but Wilson remains the top option behind Jacobs, and both may fill only bit roles…read more

  • Logs two catches on Thanksgiving

    Brooks didn't get any carries but caught both of his targets for nine yards in Thursday's 31-24 win over Detroit.

    Analysis: On a day when six different Packers -- including three WRs -- got at least one carry, Brooks was invisible in the running game. However, he did notch a pair of catches to ensure his name appeared in the box score. Brooks has 11 rushes and 10 catches on the campaign as Green Bay's No. 3 RB, so it's not out of the norm for him to be featured more as a pass catcher than as a ball carrier during his limited offensive snaps.

  • Racks up nine touches

    Brooks had eight carries for 21 yards and one reception for five yards in Sunday's 23-6 victory over the Vikings.

    Analysis: The nine touches were the most Brooks has recorded in a game since joining the Packers in 2024, but they came in a contest in which starter Josh Jacobs (knee) sat out and fellow reserve Emanuel Wilson touched the ball a whopping 30 times. Brooks could again be busier than usual if Jacobs is unable to play Thursday against the Lions, but in such a scenario he would still be the No. 2 option behind Wilson.

  • Candidate for more work

    Brooks had one carry for eight yards in Sunday's 27-20 victory over the Giants.

    Analysis: It was a typical appearance for Brooks, who got a few snaps -- five, even with starter Josh Jacobs (knee) leaving the game -- but hardly enough to make a fantasy impact. Jacobs is not believed to be facing an extended absence, but his status is uncertain for Green Bay's Week 12 matchup with the Vikings, and if he is unable to go, Brooks could see a few more opportunities, particularly on passing downs. Fellow reserve Emanuel Wilson, though, would be the heavy favorite to be the lead back for…read more

  • Not involved against Eagles

    Brooks failed to record a single rushing attempt or target in Monday's 10-7 loss to the Eagles.

    Analysis: Brooks was a complete nonfactor Monday night, playing just six of the Packers' 68 offensive snaps in the contest. The third-year running back has not handled a single carry for the past for games and is averaging a 12 percent offensive snap share this season. Brooks remains far off the fantasy radar based on his limited usage as the No. 3 running back behind starter Josh Jacobs and backup Emanuel Wilson. Next up for the Packers is a Week 11 matchup with the Giants.

  • Corrals two passes

    Brooks was targeted twice and had two receptions for 24 yards in Sunday's 16-13 loss to the Panthers.

    Analysis: Brooks played 11 snaps in Week 9 -- the most he has recorded in a game since Week 2 -- and got a couple touches, but it was still only the second time all season he finished with more than one. He remains the third running back on the depth chart for the Packers.

  • Stuck in No. 3 role

    Brooks did not record a touch in Sunday's 35-25 victory over the Steelers.

    Analysis: Brooks did not get the ball for second time in as many games and was only on the field for a season-low three snaps. Josh Jacobs has had a lighter workload than usual in recent weeks, but Emanuel Wilson has soaked up the extra opportunities, leaving a clear pecking order in Green Bay's backfield.

  • Remains in bit role

    Brooks was targeted once but did not record a touch in Sunday's 27-23 victory over the Cardinals.

    Analysis: Fellow reserve running back Emanuel Wilson saw some extra snaps with top ball carrier Josh Jacobs spending less time on the field than usual due to an illness and calf injury, but there was no visible change to the workload for Brooks. The pecking order is pretty clearly defined in Green Bay's backfield, and Wilson -- who has played 68 snaps to 25 for Brooks over the last four games -- would be the primary beneficiary should Jacobs sustain any sort of setback.

  • Handles one carry in Week 6

    Brooks rushed once for one yard in Sunday's 27-18 win over the Bengals.

    Analysis: Brooks continued to operate as the No. 3 running back behind Josh Jacobs and Emanuel Wilson, playing just five of the Packers' 61 offensive snaps Sunday. The 25-year-old can be ignored for fantasy purposes going forward based on his extremely limited usage. Next up for the Packers is a road game against the Cardinals in Week 7.

  • Dropping down depth chart

    Brooks had one reception for one yard in Sunday's 40-40 tie with the Cowboys.

    Analysis: Brooks played just five snaps on offense in Week 4, which put him well behind both starter Josh Jacobs and fellow reserve Emanuel Wilson, who was on the field for 25 plays. Brooks played over Wilson during the first two weeks of the season, but the latter tallied 17 touches to just one for Brooks over the last two weeks, so Brooks will reside in the third spot on the depth chart heading into Green Bay's Week 5 bye.

  • No touches in loss

    Brooks did not record a touch in Sunday's 13-10 loss to the Browns.

    Analysis: The eight snaps Brooks played in Week 3 were not far off the 10 snaps he averaged over the first two weeks, but he did not get a sniff of the football after racking up five touches total in Weeks 1 and 2. Brooks and Emanuel Wilson -- who finished with six carries Sunday -- will continue mixing in behind starting running back Josh Jacobs.

  • Three catches in Week 2 win

    Brooks didn't record a carry but caught three of four targets for 27 yards in Thursday's 27-18 win over the Commanders.

    Analysis: Brooks played 13 snaps on offense to Emanuel Wilson's five, suggesting the former has established himself as the top backup to workhorse Josh Jacobs, at least until MarShawn Lloyd (hamstring) reenters the picture. Barring an injury to Jacobs, none of Green Bay's backup running backs will have much standalone fantasy value.

  • Operates as backup

    Brooks had one carry for one yard and one reception for two yards in Sunday's 27-13 victory over the Lions.

    Analysis: Josh Jacobs started at running back and handled all but three of the 23 touches racked up by Green Bay ball carriers, but Brooks was next in line, finishing with nine snaps and two touches compared to the two plays and one carry logged by fellow reserve Emanuel Wilson. The latter is a more effective runner and -- depending on the status of MarShawn Lloyd (hamstring) -- could be the favorite for carries if Jacobs were to go down, but as things stand consider Brooks the No. 2 option thanks to his…read more

  • Works behind Jacobs

    Brooks recorded four carries for 15 yards in Saturday's 20-7 preseason win over the Seahawks.

    Analysis: Brooks was the second back into the game behind Josh Jacobs, though he did rotate carries with Emanuel Wilson for a few drives. Wilson was the more efficient back but played deeper into the game, suggesting Brooks could be either second or third on the depth chart depending on MarShawn Lloyd's (hamstring) status for a Week 1 matchup against the Lions.

  • Finishes with five carries

    Brooks had five carries for 17 yards in Saturday's 30-10 preseason loss to the Jets.

    Analysis: Roles remain unsettled behind starting running back Josh Jacobs, but with fellow ball carriers Emanuel Wilson (knee) and MarShawn Lloyd (groin) absent for the exhibition opener, Brooks worked as the No. 2 option -- and essentially the top back with Jacobs playing only one snap. Expect Brooks, Wilson and Lloyd to continue competing for snaps -- and perhaps a roster spot -- all the way up until cutdown day.

  • Taking some first-team snaps

    Brooks has been getting some first-team snaps while fellow running backs Emanuel Wilson (knee) and MarShawn Lloyd (groin) recover from injuries, Wes Hodkiewicz of packers.com reports.

    Analysis: Some may have assumed that Lloyd, a 2024 third-round pick, would settle in as the No. 2 running back after an injury-plagued rookie season. It instead seems Wilson was putting up a good fight to keep the job, at least until he left practice early last Friday with a knee injury, four days after the groin issue forced Lloyd out of action. Neither has returned yet, leaving Brooks as the No. 2 RB in training camp after he handled the No. 3 role for most of last year. He'll presumably have a spot on…read more

  • Minimal production against Eagles

    Brooks caught two of three targets for nine yards in Sunday's 22-10 wild-card loss to the Eagles.

    Analysis: Brooks failed to record a single carry for the sixth time this season. The 25-year-old running back played just 16 of the Packers' 66 offensive snaps Sunday, behind Josh Jacobs (41) and ahead of Emanuel Wilson (11). Brooks finished the 2024 regular season with 36 carries for 183 yards and a touchdown, adding 11 receptions for 69 yards on 13 targets. The BYU product is under contract for the 2025 season before becoming a restricted free agent in 2026. Brooks will likely continue to compete with…read more

  • Effective in Week 18

    Brooks had eight carries for 59 yards in Sunday's 24-22 loss to the Bears.

    Analysis: Although the Packers ended the regular season on a down note, Brooks ended it on a high one, setting season highs in both the rushing attempts and yards categories. Brooks averaged a quality 5.1 YPC during the regular season, but it's unlikely he will be much of a factor in the postseason, as starting running back Josh Jacobs will be at full speed and fellow reserve Emanuel Wilson took 31 carries to Brooks' 14 over the last three weeks.

  • Cleared to play Sunday

    Brooks (ankle) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Bears.

    Analysis: Brooks was limited in practice Wednesday and Thursday but is good to go for the regular-season finale against Chicago. With Green Bay likely (73.9 percent, per ESPN.com) ticketed for the No. 7 seed in the NFC, there's a chance Brooks sees an uptick in playing time against the Bears, as Josh Jacobs has already stated he doesn't believe he's going to play his full workload. Green Bay could use more of Emanuel Wilson and Brooks out of the backfield, allowing Jacobs to rest a bit more ahead of next…read more

  • Remains limited Thursday

    Brooks (ankle) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Brooks has opened the week with consecutive limited practices due to an ankle injury he likely picked up during the Packers' Week 17 loss against the Vikings. He didn't register a carry across seven offensive snaps in that game, but in the five games prior he turned 15 carries into 71 yards and a touchdown while adding five catches on as many targets for 27 yards. Brooks could have a larger role on offense in Sunday's regular-season finale against the Bears if Josh Jacobs (wrist) is limited or…read more

    Analysis: Brooks logged seven offensive snaps and 12 special-teams snaps in Sunday's 27-25 loss to the Vikings, and he appears to have come out of the contest with an ankle injury. The 24-year-old tallied a season-high seven touches Week 16 in a blowout win over New Orleans but didn't get any touches versus the Vikings in Week 17.

  • No touches in Week 17

    Brooks failed to record a single carry or target in Sunday's 27-25 loss to the Vikings.

    Analysis: Brooks was held without a touch for just the fourth time all season. The second-year running back played just eight of the Packers' 63 offensive snaps Sunday, behind both Josh Jacobs (40) and Emanuel Wilson (20). Brooks remains far of the fantasy radar as Green Bay's No. 3 running back heading into a Week 18 matchup against the Bears.

  • Tallies first touchdown

    Brooks had six carries for 23 yards and a touchdown and caught his only target for two yards in Monday's 34-0 victory over the Saints.

    Analysis: Brooks came close to picking up his first score a couple times earlier in the season, and he finally found paydirt in Week 16. Both Brooks and Emanuel Wilson were more involved than usual Monday, but that's because the Packers ran up the score and conserved starter Josh Jacobs. In a key matchup for both the Packers and Vikings in Week 17, Jacobs should resume his role as the bell cow back.

  • One carry in Week 15

    Brooks rushed once for six yards and caught his lone target for nine yards in Sunday's 30-13 win over the Seahawks.

    Analysis: Operating as the Packers' No. 2 running back, Brooks played just 16 of Green Bay's 64 offensive snaps Sunday, well behind starter Josh Jacobs (48). The 24-year-old Brooks continues to handle a small workload, but he is the preferred backup over Emanuel Wilson based on the fact that he continues to see more playing time than Wilson. With that said, the Packers have relied heavily on Jacobs as he continues to have success out of the backfield. Brooks should be considered a solid insurance policy…read more

  • Role remains consistent

    Brooks had one carry for three yards in Thursday's 34-31 loss to the Lions.

    Analysis: The Packers leaned heavily on starting running back Josh Jacobs again, and both Brooks and fellow reserve Emanuel Wilson finished with only one carry apiece. Brooks and Wilson continue seeing a similar number of touches, but Brooks has been spending more time on the field, out-snapping Wilson in six straight contests -- and quite comfortably in each of the last four.

  • Stays involved Thursday

    Brooks took three carries for 28 yards and caught both of his two targets for one yard during Thursday's 30-17 win versus the Dolphins.

    Analysis: Brooks continued to be more involved in the offense than teammate Emanuel Wilson in Week 13, and he collected five touches for the second straight contest. Even still, Josh Jacobs continues to see the lion's share of the Packers' backfield work both on running and passing downs, so Brooks' path to fantasy relevance in 2024 probably requires Jacobs missing time.

  • Finishes with five touches

    Brooks had four carries for 11 yards and one reception for 15 yards in Sunday's 38-10 victory over the 49ers.

    Analysis: Brooks finished second among Packers running backs in snaps for the fourth time in as many chances, but he was the third Green Bay running back to get a touch in Week 12, and he finished with five touches compared to Emanuel Wilson's nine. Both running backs figure to continue working in behind starter Josh Jacobs, who is handling the lion's share of the work in Green Bay's backfield.

  • Snap counts stay favorable

    Brooks was targeted twice and had two receptions for 13 yards in Sunday's 20-19 victory over the Bears.

    Analysis: Brooks did not tally a carry Sunday and was the third Packers running back to enter the contest, but for the third time in as many he finished with more snaps (10) than fellow reserve Emanuel Wilson, who was on the field for only three offensive plays Week 11. One of the two remains the backup behind Josh Jacobs with the return of MarShawn Lloyd (ankle/hamstring/appendix) again delayed, but it's tough to pinpoint exactly who is the No. 2 back.

    Brooks had four carries for 16 yards and one reception for one yard in Sunday's 30-27 victory over the Jaguars.

    Analysis: Brooks was the third Packers running back to get work Sunday, but he finished with just one fewer touch than fellow reserve Emanuel Wilson, and he also wound up playing 17 snaps to Wilson's 12. There hasn't been an official changing of the guard behind starter Josh Jacobs, and another ball carrier -- MarShawn Lloyd (ankle) -- could be back soon, but Brooks is more than an afterthought in the Green Bay backfield at this point.

    Brooks had four carries for 21 yards in Sunday's 34-13 victory over the Cardinals.

    Analysis: The Packers gave Brooks some work while holding a comfortable lead in the fourth quarter of Sunday's contest, and he responded with a couple nice runs. His spot on the roster will be in jeopardy when fellow running back MarShawn Lloyd (IR, ankle) returns, but he figures to remain Green Bay's third running back until then.

    Analysis: Brooks saw his first work since joining the Packers in early September, but he did not take a carry until Green Bay's final drive when the outcome was all but decided. Brooks will operate as the third running back in Green Bay until MarShawn Lloyd (ankle) is ready to return, but he will presumably be a distant third option given the way fellow ball carriers Josh Jacobs and Emanuel Wilson have performed to date.

    Analysis: Brooks will now have the opportunity to sign with another team once he can clear the league's concussion protocols, instead of spending the 2024 campaign on injured reserve. The BYU product appeared in nine regular-season games for Miami last season, gaining 106 yards on 19 carries.

    The Dolphins waived/injured Brooks (concussion) on Tuesday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Brooks entered the concussion protocol eight days ago. If he clears waivers, he'll likely be cut with an injury settlement, allowing Brooks to find a new home once healthy. As a rookie last season, Brooks rushed 19 times for 106 yards but wasn't targeted in the passing game.

    Analysis: The second-year running back out of BYU was likely on the outside looking in at Miami's 53-man roster, and this concussion further diminishes his chances. Once Brooks returns to the field, he's expected to compete for a depth role in the team's RB room or a spot on the Dolphins' practice squad.

  • Modest production in rookie season

    Brooks played seven snaps on special teams during Sunday's 21-14 loss to Buffalo. Across nine appearances as a rookie this season, he rushed 19 times for 106 yards (5.6 YPC).

    Analysis: Brooks only handled offensive snaps in four of nine appearances as a rookie, but he looked competent in Miami's rushing scheme in limited action. A stint on IR due to an ankle injury suffered Week 6 briefly halted Brooks' progress, but he'll remain available as a depth option for Miami's hopeful playoff run. In deeper dynasty formats, the age of Raheem Mostert (knee) and Jeff Wilson ahead of Brooks on the depth chart makes him an interesting long-term stash.

    Analysis: Brooks hasn't played since Week 6 against the Panthers when he suffered an ankle sprain that led to his stint on IR. The return of the BYU product will bolster the depth of the Dolphins' backfield, where he'll slot in behind Raheem Mostert, De'Von Achane and likely Jeff Wilson.

The rookie running back logged a trio of limited practices during Week 15 prep, though it's unclear how close he is to be able to return. Brooks' practice windows closes this coming Tuesday, and if Miami doesn't activate him by then, he'll be forced to sit out the remainder of the season.

The BYU product is still in the middle of his 21-day practice window with the team since being designated to return from IR on Nov. 29. His next opportunity to suit up will be Week 15 against the Jets.

  • Questionable against Tennessee

    Brooks (ankle) is listed as questionable ahead of Monday's game against the Titans, Daniel Oyefusi of the Miami Herald reports.

    Analysis: Brooks was designated to return from injured reserve Nov. 29 after he sprained his right ankle in Week 6 against the Chargers. He was limited in practice leading up to Week 13 but was able to fully participate in sessions this week and has a chance to return to action Monday. Brooks has 15 carries for 94 yards in six games this season.

  • Will not return Week 13

    Brooks (ankle) will not return from injured reserve Sunday against the Commanders, as the Dolphins have downgraded him to out, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

    Analysis: Brooks was designated to return from IR earlier in the week, which opened a 21-day window for him to be activated. With the Dolphins opting to err on the side of caution, his next opportunity to be activated will come in the Week 14 tilt against the Titans. The 23-year-old has been sidelined since Week 6 due to an ankle injury.

  • Could play Week 13

    Brooks (ankle) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's game against the Commanders, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

    Analysis: The rookie running back out of BYU was able to log a week of limited practice sessions, and he has a chance to appear in his first game since Week 6 this Sunday. The Dolphins have yet to activate Brooks to their active roster though, which must be done in order for the 23-year-old to play in Week 13.

  • Set to return to practice

    The Dolphins designated Brooks (ankle) for return from their injured reserve Wednesday, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.

    Analysis: The move opens a 21-day window during which Miami can evaluate Brooks in practice before activating him from IR. The Dolphins' injury reports this week will provide insight into whether Brooks has a chance to play Sunday in Washington, but even if he's activated from that contest, he'll be relegated to a depth role behind Raheem Mostert.

  • Moved to IR on Friday

    Brooks (ankle) was placed on injured reserve Friday.

    Analysis: Brooks sprained his ankle Week 6 against Carolina, and he will be sidelined until at least Week 12 against the Jets as a result of the injury (four games, plus Miami's Week 10 bye). Miami didn't announce a corresponding roster move, but it's possible that the roster spot opened up by Brooks' placement on IR will go to fellow running back Jeff Wilson (ribs/finger), who is in the second week of his 21-day window to be activated from IR.

  • Misses practice Wednesday

    Brooks (ankle) did not participate at practice Wednesday, Daniel Oyefusi of the Miami Herald reports.

    Analysis: Brooks sustained a sprained ankle during Sunday's win versus Carolina, so it's no big surprise that he was unable to practice Wednesday. He'd likely have to practice in some capacity Thursday or Friday to have a chance at suiting up in Week 7.

  • Week-to-week with ankle sprain

    Coach Mike McDaniel said Monday that Brooks is week-to-week with an ankle injury he sustained in the Week 6 win over the Panthers, Cameron Wolfe of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Active as the Dolphins' RB3 against Carolina with De'Von Achane (knee) and Jeff Wilson (IR-ribs) out, Brooks played 11 snaps and rushed six times for 28 yards behind Raheem Mostert and Salvon Ahmed. With Brooks likely to be sidelined, it's possible Wilson is cleared to make his season debut Sunday night against the Eagles.

  • Leaves Sunday with ankle injury

    Brooks was ruled out in the fourth quarter of Sunday's game against the Panthers due to an ankle injury, Cameron Wolfe of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Wolfe notes that Brooks was avoiding putting pressure on his right leg and that his teammates came over to console him while on the cart. The Dolphins haven't provided an update on the extent of Brooks' injury, but he looks like he could be at risk of missing time. With De'Von Achane (knee) moving to injured reserve earlier this week, Brooks and Salvon Ahmed stepped into larger backup roles behind lead back Raheem Mostert. Brooks had a 28-yard run before leaving the game, but he combined for…read more

  • Efficient in reserve role

    Brooks carried nine times for 66 yards during Sunday's 70-20 blowout win over the Broncos.

    Analysis: Brooks got a chance to operate as the No. 3 back behind Raheem Mostert (142 scrimmage yards, four total TDs) and De'Von Achane (233 scrimmage yards, four total TDs) with Salvon Ahmed (groin) sidelined. Though he couldn't match the otherworldly production of Achane and Mostert, Brooks recorded an efficient 7.3 YPC against an outmatched and gassed Broncos defense, an impressive showing in his debut handling offensive work at the NFL level. Even if Ahmed misses more time, though, Brooks will…read more

  • One of two

    Brooks and Raheem Mostert are currently the only healthy running backs on the Dolphins' roster, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.

    Analysis: Brooks was able to make the team as an undrafted free agent out of BYU, beating out Myles Gaskin for a spot on the 53-man roster. Although it is likely that De'Von Achane (shoulder) and Salvon Ahmed (neck) will both be healthy by the time the season opener against the Chargers rolls around, Jeff Wilson (abdomen), who will miss at least the first four games of the season after being placed on the PUP list Thursday, will not be. Brooks ran for 817 yards on 130 carries and six touchdowns in his…read more
