Jordyn Brooks Fantasy Stats

The Miami Dolphins restructured the contract of starting linebacker Jordyn Brooks on Thursday by converting his base salary into a signing bonus, which in turn creates $3 million in salary cap space for this season, according to Field Yates of ESPN. Brooks has been one of the few bright spots for the 1-6 Dolphins this year, as he currently leads the league with 75 tackles (46 solo) through the first seven weeks. The 28-year-old is under contract with Miami through the 2026 season. In addition to his NFL-high 75 tackles, Brooks has 1.5 sacks, three tackles for loss, and a forced fumble. Miami will need him to be at his best in Week 8 as they look to slow down Atlanta Falcons running back Bijan Robinson, who is one of the best at his position.

Per David Furones of the South Florida Sun-Sentinel, Miami Dolphins linebacker Jordyn Brooks (wrist) had successful surgery on his wrist this past Friday. The former first-round pick was excellent during his first season in South Beach, appearing in all 17 games and leading all Dolphins in tackles with 143 (86 solo). Brooks appeared on Miami's injury report twice throughout the season with a wrist ailment but never missed practice because of the injury. Fortunately for him, the procedure was early enough in the offseason that he should be ready for the start of training camp. While the 27-year-old was a sound investment for the team in 2024, he'll garner a much more significant cap hit over the final two years of his contract.

Miami Dolphins linebacker Jordyn Brooks (knee, quadriceps) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the 49ers. The 27-year-old has had a fantastic game, totaling seven tackles and a sack. However, the Dolphins put this game out of reach, so IDP managers shouldn't expect to see him back on the field. But Miami will need him back on the field in Week 17 versus Cleveland. If he's not out there, Duke Riley could see more work.

Former Seattle Seahawks linebacker Jordyn Brooks agreed to terms with the Miami Dolphins on Monday on a three-year, $30 million deal. Despite seeing a drop in production in 16 games in his fourth season with the Seahawks in 2023, Brooks was still relevant in IDP fantasy leagues at his position with 111 tackles (62 solo), a career-high 4.5 sacks, eight tackles for loss, five QB hits, an interception returned to the house, four passes defensed, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery. The 26-year-old was hurt by the return of fellow tackle machine Bobby Wagner last year, but now that he's in Miami, Brooks could once again become an every-week, must-start linebacker in IDP formats. In the last three seasons, Brooks has a whopping 274 solo tackles and 6.5 sacks.

Seattle Seahawks linebacker Jordyn Brooks (ankle) was forced to exit during the first half of Thursday's game against the Dallas Cowboys. He was originally listed as probable to return, but the team later downgraded him to doubtful. Brooks was able to record a sack before being forced to exit the contest. The assumption is that it's a minor injury and he should be fine for next week. Brooks has 96 tackles on the season, so his absence would be a significant loss for the Seahawks defense.

Seattle Seahawks linebacker Jordyn Brooks intercepted a pass from San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy in the third quarter and took it 12 yards for a score, the Seahawks' only touchdown in a 13-31 Thanksgiving Day loss to the Niners. With the pick-six and 12 tackles, Brooks had a big game, scoring 34 RotoBaller IDP fantasy points and ending a two-game streak of disappointing results. Brooks' 12 tackles, seven of which were solos, were the most of any player in the game and tied his season-high. Next week, Brooks remains a solid starting LB option against the Dallas Cowboys.

Seattle Seahawks linebacker Jordyn Brooks (knee) was a limited participant in Wednesday's team practice. It's a good sign that Brooks was able to practice in some capacity to start the week. His limited practice could have also been the Seahawks being cautious following their bye week. The linebacker quickly recovered from his ACL tear suffered at the end of the 2022 season, and he hasn't missed a beat on the field. He has 41 tackles through four games and remains an elite IDP option at the linebacker position.

Seattle Seahawks linebacker Jordyn Brooks (knee) passed a physical on Tuesday and was officially activated from the Physically Unable to Perform list seven months after having surgery to fix a torn right ACL. Brooks has recorded 345 tackles in the last two seasons, including a franchise-record 184 in 2021. He tore his ACL in Week 17 against the New York Jets in January. The 25-year-old can now return to practice at training camp, but the Seahawks figure to ease him back into action. Brooks' return on Tuesday doesn't guarantee that he'll be ready for Week 1 of the regular season either, but it's all-around great news for Seattle's defense. When he's fully healthy, Brooks has the potential to be an IDP beast.

Seattle Seahawks linebacker Jordyn Brooks (knee) has been on the Physically Unable To Perform (PUP) list since training camp began a few weeks ago, but he's expected to be activated soon. The former first-round pick suffered a torn ACL roughly seven months ago but passed his physical to return to action on Tuesday. Brooks is entering the fourth year of his rookie deal and the team declined to pick up his fifth-year option. The 25-year-old has totaled 402 tackles, two sacks, two fumble recoveries, and 12 pass deflections in 47 career games.

Seattle Seahawks linebacker Jordyn Brooks (knee) is making progress after tearing his ACL in Week 17 last year and posted a video on his social media of him doing running drills. Brooks was moving well laterally and in a straight-line sprint, but it remains to be seen if he'll be ready to participate in team drills at training camp at the end of July. The 25-year-old could be eased into regular season games early in the year, but even in that case he'll be a popular IDP fantasy selection at the linebacker position. Brooks is a tackling machine when healthy and accumulated 212 solo tackles, 13 tackles for loss, six QB hits, two sacks, 10 passes defensed, a forced fumble and two fumble recoveries in 33 games in the last two years for Seattle.
