Piles up 18 tackles Monday Brooks recorded 18 tackles (15 solo) during Monday's 27-21 win versus the Jets.

Impact Miami's defense and Brooks were only on the field for 57 snaps in Week 4, but that didn't stop him from compiling his best single-game tackle total since Week 18 of the 2021 season (20). He now has 44 tackles (28 solo) through the first four games of the campaign, putting him on a pace to eclipse the 184 total tackles he tallied that same year. He is an elite IDP option going into a Week 5 matchup at Carolina.

Four tackles in loss Brooks recorded four solo tackles in Thursday's 31-21 loss to the Bills.

Impact Brooks was unable to repeat his elite performance from Week 2, finishing tied for fourth on the team in takedowns against Buffalo. The linebacker has seen his tackle production drop each week this season, but he's now compiled 26 total tackles (13 solo), including 1.0 sacks, to this point in the year.

Impact Brooks finished second on the team in tackles behind Tyrel Dodson's nine and also recorded one of Miami's three sacks of Drake Maye. Brooks has been one the team's few bright spots across the first two games of the season as he's already racked up 22 tackles (nine solo) and will look to add to his totals during the team's Week 3 matchup versus the Bills.

Huge effort in loss Brooks recorded 14 tackles (five solo) and one tackle for loss in Sunday's 33-8 loss to the Colts.

Impact Brooks was one of four Miami defenders to play 100 percent of defensive snaps. His 14 total tackles were his highest total since Week 12 of the 2022 campaign, and he's already well on his way to matching his three double-digit tackle performances of 2024.

Fades injury report Brooks (undisclosed) was not listed on Wednesday's injury report, Travis Wingfield of the Dolphins' official site reports.

Impact Brooks was dealing with an undisclosed injury that prevented him from playing in the Dolphins' preseason finale against the Jaguars. However, his absence from Wednesday's injury report indicates that he should be available for Sunday's regular-season opener against the Colts, barring any setbacks. The 2020 first-rounder logged 143 tackles (86 solo), including 3.0 sacks, six pass defenses and two fumble recoveries across 17 regular-season games in 2024.

Dealing with injury Coach Mike McDaniel said Brooks is dealing with a "minor" undisclosed injury, C. Isaiah Smalls II of the Miami Herald reports.

Impact McDaniel said Brooks would have played in Saturday's preseason finale had it been a regular-season contest, so it sounds like the linebacker should be fine for Week 1 against the Colts on Sept. 7. Brooks underwent offseason wrist surgery, but it's unclear if the latest injury is related to that one.

Past wrist injury Brooks (wrist) participated in Friday's practice, Travis Wingfield of the Dolphins' official site reports.

Impact Brooks underwent offseason surgery on his right wrist, and he has recovered enough to be given the green light to practice. The 2020 first-round pick was able to play in all 17 regular-season games last year despite battling through lingering knee and quad injuries and finished with 143 tackles (86 solo), including 3.0 sacks, six pass defenses and two fumble recoveries. Brooks is entering the second year of a three-year, $26.25 million contract that he signed with the Dolphins in March of 2024.

Undergoes wrist surgery Brooks announced on Friday that he had an offseason surgery, which was on his right wrist, according to David Furones of the South Florida Sun-Sentinel.

Impact 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.

Finishes as team tackle leader Brooks made six tackles (three solo) and one pass breakup during Miami's 32-20 loss to the Jets on Sunday.

Impact Brooks concludes the year with a team-high 143 tackles (86 solo), including 3.0 sacks, plus six passes defensed and two fumble recoveries. Despite leading Miami in stops, that number marks just the third-best total of Brooks' five-year career. He has one year remaining on his contract with the team, and though the Dolphins have a potential 'out' in the deal for only $6.7 million in dead cap, this defense can't exactly afford to move on from one of its few difference makers.

Nine tackles vs. Cleveland Brooks tallied nine tackles (eight solo) during Sunday's 20-3 win over the Browns.

Impact Brooks finished Sunday's game as the Dolphins' second-leading tackler behind Tyrel Dodson (15). Brooks has logged at least seven combined tackles in 14 of 16 games this season, and on the year he's up to 137 tackles (83 solo), including 3.0 sacks, five pass defenses and two fumble recoveries. He'll look to add to his total in a must-win game against the Jets next Sunday.

Impact Brooks was injured in the second half of Sunday's win over the 49ers and wasn't able to return. He was listed as a limited practice participant throughout this week, but he appears set to suit up Sunday. Brooks has already recorded 128 tackles this season, marking his fourth straight campaign reaching the triple-digit mark.
