On Thursday, the Carolina Panthers positioned 2024 second-round choose Jonathon Brooks on the bodily unable to carry out (PUP) checklist, which means the 21-year-old will miss the 2025 season.
Brooks suffered a torn ACL in his collegiate profession, prematurely ending his junior 12 months.
The previous Texas working again was some of the touted gamers at his place when he entered the 2024 draft, however he barely slipped resulting from his important knee harm.
Brooks didn’t make his rookie debut till Week 12 final season, and he solely appeared in three video games. He tore his ACL in Week 14, his second ACL harm in as a few years, placing his NFL profession in respectable jeopardy.
In his transient stint, Brooks totaled 9 carries for 22 yards whereas securing all three of his targets for 23 yards.
Carolina signed working again Chuba Hubbard to a four-year, $33.25 million contract a number of weeks earlier than Brooks’ debut.
It was a puzzling choice on the time, because the Panthers had simply signed Miles Sanders to a multiyear deal the earlier offseason and had simply invested a second-round choose into Brooks, as talked about earlier.
With Brooks’ future as an NFL working again trying bleak and Sanders now on the Dallas Cowboys, it’s secure to say that extending Hubbard was the appropriate choice.
Quarterback Bryce Younger is trying to develop on what he completed final season, probably saving his profession with constant manufacturing and performances after being benched a couple of weeks into the 2024 marketing campaign.
As disappointing as Brooks’ harm is, the Panthers will concentrate on 2025 and Younger’s growth, hoping Carolina can take one other step towards competing for an NFC South division title.
