Brooks was listed as a rankings riser prior to the season and continued to impress throughout his sophomore year. Plays the centerfield safety position well with great range and instincts. He’s smooth his pedal with good pad level allowing him to easily transition and change directions. Can come down in the slot and play man coverage playing aggressively at the LOS with good coverage ability. Plays well with his eyes to read the QB and anticipate the target. Effectively plays the ball breaking hard at the short and intermediate levels and tracking the deep ball while staying over the top. Physical tackler that brings strong contact and is reliable in the open field. Another major D1 prospect that will pop as he gains exposure.

Read EvaluationJordan Reyes | Prep Redzone Scout
Brooks flashed throughout his freshman year filling up the stat sheet with four interceptions, 40 tackles, two forced fumbles, and two PBU’s. He’s able to cover a lot of ground with good range to cover vertically and to the boundary. Demonstrates good eye discipline to process his reads and anticipate where the ball is going. Times out his jump at the catch point and is able to track the deep ball effectively to prevent completions. Comes downhill aggressively in run support. Voted second team all league in 2023 and figures to see a bump in recruitment going into his sophomore season.
