From the episode

Jonathan Brooks has the juice. And if they're in a negative game script against a high powered Bears offense, I think Brooks is going to be using the passing game.

Brooks has high upside as a pass-catcher even in a committee

Despite injury concerns and a potential 50-50 split with Chuba Hubbard, Andrew Erickson remains high on Jonathan Brooks, ranking him inside his top 24. Erickson believes Brooks has more 'juice' than Hubbard and could serve as a key pass-catcher if the Panthers are in a negative game script against the Bears.
