While Chris Brooks has never had a large volume of carries, he did essentially average the same per carry as Wilson did last year...Brooks is used more as almost a fullback...He is the only back who contributes in any meaningful way on special teams.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalRole

Brooks' roster spot secure via fullback role, blocking value, and special teams elite snaps.

Chris Brooks provides roster security through a specialized fullback/pass-protection role and elite special teams contributions, not volume carries. He averaged the same per-carry efficiency as departing Emanuel Wilson in 2025 despite limited touches, and is used primarily in split-back looks as a lead blocker and pass-protector on obvious passing downs. Brooks plays among the highest special teams snap counts of any NFL running back and is a core unit contributor, making his roster spot secure.
