Yahoo Sports NFL on Jalen Brooks
From the article
Every year, there is a receiver who becomes the darling of training camp and preseason. Brooks is this year's version. He has impressed in two of two games. The Cardinals might need to find a way to keep him. Brooks led all receivers in the Hall of Fame Game with 4 targets, 3 catches for 99 yards. In the Raiders contest, he again led all receivers with 6 targets, 6 receptions for 52 yards and a touchdown.
STACKED’s take
Brooks preseason standout (10 targets, 9 rec, 151 yards, TD); staff reluctant to cut.
Brooks, 26, is this year's training camp and preseason darling. He has impressed in two of two games and has been a force in practices. The Cardinals might need to find a way to keep him. He led all receivers in the Hall of Fame Game with 4 targets, 3 catches for 99 yards. In the Raiders contest, he again led all receivers with 6 targets, 6 receptions for 52 yards and a touchdown. He has great hands, is fearless, and has a great ability to track the ball in flight and adjust his route to meet it. Brooks will go across the middle despite knowing he will get hit. He is a very smooth route runner and is shifty, able to fool cornerbacks with good deception. The coaching staff will have a difficult time releasing him.
