From the article

Brooks, the team's third running back, didn't do a lot to inspire confidence that, if the Bengals were to lean on him, he would be able to move the ball down the field. He only averaged 3.8 yards per carry on his 13 total rushing attempts.

Brooks' 3.8 YPC uninspiring, but lacks competition after Jacobs and Johnson exits.

Brooks, the team's third running back, averaged only 3.8 yards per carry on 13 rushing attempts in preseason, failing to inspire confidence. Competitors Kentrel Bullock and Jamal Haynes both averaged more yards per carry and looked solid, but Brooks retained his spot after Josh Jacobs was placed on the commissioner's exempt list and Kaleb Johnson was traded away, leaving him without real competition.
