Jonathon Brooks To Be Activated, Week 10 Status Still Unclear
15 seconds agoCarolina Panthers running back Jonathon Brooks (knee) will be activated to the 53-man roster on Wednesday, according to Panthers insider Joe Person. The rookie running back has been on the PUP (Physically Unable To Perform) list all year as he works his way back from a November ACL tear at Texas, but he has been practicing for the last few weeks. Brooks turned in a full practice on Wednesday, but head coach Dave Canales has not committed to him playing in Week 10 against the New York Giants in Germany. Brooks, the first ball carrier selected in the 2024 NFL Draft, is expected to eventually take over a workhorse role in Carolina, but it might not happen in his rookie season given the success of veteran Chuba Hubbard this season. Fantasy managers should wait to see if Brooks will play on Sunday, but his role and fantasy football outlook have a wide range of outcomes when he makes his NFL debut.
