The Seattle Seahawks have some good news on the horizon as linebacker Jordyn Brooks has been activated from the Physically Unable to Perform (PUP) list and is ready to rejoin the team’s practice. Brooks, the Seahawks’ first-round pick in the 2020 NFL Draft, was placed on the PUP list at the start of training camp due to a knee injury.
The 22-year-old Texas Tech product is now healthy and ready to get back on the field. He will be able to practice with the team and compete for a starting role. Brooks is expected to compete with K.J. Wright and Cody Barton for the starting job at weakside linebacker.
The Seahawks have been impressed with Brooks’ athleticism and instincts since they drafted him. He was a two-time All-Big 12 selection in college and was named Big 12 Defensive Player of the Year in 2019. He also led the Red Raiders in tackles for three straight seasons.
The Seahawks are hoping that Brooks can make an immediate impact on their defense. He has the potential to be an impact player in the middle of their defense and help them improve their pass rush. He has the speed and agility to make plays all over the field and should be able to help Seattle’s defense take a step forward this season.
It’s great news for the Seahawks that Brooks is healthy and ready to rejoin practice. He has the potential to be a key contributor on defense this season and help the team reach their goals. It will be exciting to see what he can do when he finally gets on the field.
