Quick answer
BuyBrooks ran for 30 yards and caught 2 passes in 2026, ranking RB76 through 2 games. Through 2 games he sits RB76, up from RB118 — a climb, not a final rank. Played a short 2024 (3 games) — health is the nearer question than talent. The trend line says buy: this is a climb, not a name you're paying nostalgia tax for.
