Brooks, one of the wide receivers looking to earn the last spot in the position group, had a pair of impressive catches in team drills.
The first was a completion deep downfield on a dart from Jayden Daniels, while the second was a contested grab near the end of practice. With five receiver spots essentially locked up, Brooks and the rest of the wideouts are looking for ways to stand out. It might come down to who can prove they provide the most value on special teams. If Brooks can show special teams coordinator Larry Izzo that he can provide more value than his competition, perhaps he can claim that sixth spot for his own.
