Undergoes wrist surgery
Brooks announced Friday that he had an offseason surgery, which was on his right wrist, according to David Furones of the South Florida Sun-Sentinel.
ANALYSIS
Brooks dealt with knee and quad issues down the stretch of the season, but he never appeared on the Dolphins' injury report with a wrist injury during this window. The 27-year-old is coming off his first season in Miami, and he finished as the team's leading tackler with 143 over 17 games this year. The exact nature of this procedure and the associated injury is unclear, but undergoing surgery this early in the offseason should give him about six months to recover before the start of Miami's 2025 training camp.

If there was a defensive player that embodied "the stats don't the full story," it would be Brooks. He has two seasons of more than 160 tackles on his ledger and has over 100 stops in each of his last three campaigns. The problem is that he doesn't stand out as above average contributor in any area of the game, which doesn't make a compelling case for him to remain on the field. What makes him even more vulnerable is that he departed from Seattle this offseason, the team that spent a first-round pick on him in 2020 and thus had significant incentive to keep him on the field in the hopes that he would develop. Now with the Dolphins, the track record says that Brooks is an elite IDP option in leagues that reward tackling. A little bit of a longer glimpse suggests caution is prudent.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Still in Seattle's plans
Head coach Pete Carroll said Wednesday that Brooks is still a part of Seattle's plans despite the team opting not to pick up the linebacker's fifth-year option for 2024, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports. "The decision we made now, this is not an indication of our future," Carroll said of the team's decision to decline Brooks' option. "We expect Jordyn to be with us for a long time."
ANALYSIS
It's possible that Carroll's comments are just coach-speak since Brooks will be on the team either way in 2023, but the Seahawks could still opt to extend Brooks, though likely at a lower cap number than the $12.7 million option they declined. The star linebacker underwent knee surgery in January.
