Chris Brooks Goes On Injured Reserve

one year ago

The Miami Dolphins placed rookie running back Chris Brooks (ankle) on Injured Reserve on Friday. Brooks will now be required to miss at least four games after injuring his ankle in the Week 6 win over the Carolina Panthers. The 23-year-old will be eligible to return in Week 12 against the New York Jets. With Brooks now on IR, it's likely that the Dolphins will officially activate running back Jeff Wilson Jr. (finger, ribs) from IR so that he can make his season debut this Sunday against the Philadelphia Eagles. In his first six NFL games, Brooks saw 15 carries for 94 yards. Rookie De'Von Achane (knee) is also on IR and won't be able to return until after the team's Week 10 bye.
