2025 Fantasy Outlook
Brooks quietly seemed to be at a crossroads in his career heading into the 2024 season. Despite consistent tackling production, the Seahawks let him walk, in part because he at times struggled in coverage throughout his rookie contract. He ended up signing with Miami and showcased significant skills growth in nearly every facet last season, delivering career-high marks in quarterback hits (six) and total pressures (20) while also improving in coverage. That should solidify his role in 2025, setting him up to easily top 100 tackles for the fifth consecutive season. Read Past Outlooks
Signed a three-year, $26.25 million contract with the Dolphins in March of 2024.
Past wrist injury
Brooks (wrist) participated in Friday's practice, Travis Wingfield of the Dolphins' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Brooks underwent offseason surgery on his right wrist, and he has recovered enough to be given the green light to practice. The 2020 first-round pick was able to play in all 17 regular-season games last year despite battling through lingering knee and quad injuries and finished with 143 tackles (86 solo), including 3.0 sacks, six pass defenses and two fumble recoveries. Brooks is entering the second year of a three-year, $26.25 million contract that he signed with the Dolphins in March of 2024.

If there was a defensive player that embodied "the stats don't the full story," it would be Brooks. He has two seasons of more than 160 tackles on his ledger and has over 100 stops in each of his last three campaigns. The problem is that he doesn't stand out as above average contributor in any area of the game, which doesn't make a compelling case for him to remain on the field. What makes him even more vulnerable is that he departed from Seattle this offseason, the team that spent a first-round pick on him in 2020 and thus had significant incentive to keep him on the field in the hopes that he would develop. Now with the Dolphins, the track record says that Brooks is an elite IDP option in leagues that reward tackling. A little bit of a longer glimpse suggests caution is prudent.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Still in Seattle's plans
Head coach Pete Carroll said Wednesday that Brooks is still a part of Seattle's plans despite the team opting not to pick up the linebacker's fifth-year option for 2024, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports. "The decision we made now, this is not an indication of our future," Carroll said of the team's decision to decline Brooks' option. "We expect Jordyn to be with us for a long time."
ANALYSIS
It's possible that Carroll's comments are just coach-speak since Brooks will be on the team either way in 2023, but the Seahawks could still opt to extend Brooks, though likely at a lower cap number than the $12.7 million option they declined. The star linebacker underwent knee surgery in January.
