Tahj Brooks

Running BackRB
2024 Fantasy Outlook
Texas Tech's best player in 2023, Brooks rattled off 1,542 rushing yards and ranked fourth in the country in rushing production. Brooks has amassed 25 career touchdowns in his three years with the Red Raiders and can really do it all with the ball in his hand. From Week 3 through Week 12, Brooks averaged 137.6 yards on 25.7 rushing attempts (5.4 YPC) and was just two yards shy in Week 7 of stringing together nine straight 100-yard rushing performances.While his career-best 29 catches amounted to only 69 receiving yards last season, he finished with 164 and a touchdown on 27 grabs the year prior, so there's certainly hope for improvement again on that front as well. Brooks has a knack for making defenders miss, and there's a great chance he will put forth his second consecutive 1,000-yard rushing season with the Red Raiders in 2024. Read Past Outlooks
Breaks school record with big game
November 10, 2024
Brooks had 31 carries for 137 yards and one touchdown and caught 4 of 5 targets for 51 yards during Saturday's 41-27 loss versus Colorado.
ANALYSIS
Brooks racked up his ninth 100-yard rushing performance and passed up Byron Hanspard as Texas Tech's career leader in rushing yards. Over five seasons, he's rushed for 4,236 yards. He's also scored a touchdown in six straight games. Fantasy rosters will have to find a replacement next week with the team on a bye. Following the rest week, Brooks will have a great matchup at Oklahoma State.

DraftKings College Football: CFB Week 8 Main Slate Plays and Lineup Strategy
34 days ago
Saturday's College Football DFS slate on DraftKings is loaded with exciting games. John McKechnie offers his best CFB DFS picks for the main slate such as Texas Tech's Tahj Brooks.
2022 Fantasy Outlook
Brooks seem to have some ability and was certainly a productive ballcarrier for Texas Tech last year, but his pass-catching history is limited and he's stuck in one of the country's most crowded backfields. SaRodorick Thompson has functioned as the RB1 for the last three years and Xavier White is no slouch, so it's not clear how much Brooks might be able to build on a 2021 season that saw him average 6.5 yards per carry. It doesn't help that Texas Tech has a weak defense that tends to leave them playing catch-up.
