Availability
The Packers placed RB Chris Brooks on the non-football injury list.
Fantasy Impact
Brooks can be activated at any point during training camp.
Packers RB Chris Brooks took first-team reps to begin 11-on-11 drills at OTAs on Wednesday.
Fantasy Impact
Brooks got the opportunity with MarShawn Lloyd sitting out team drills. Brooks signed a two-year deal with Green Bay earlier in the offseason. Pierre Strong saw reps behind Brooks on Wednesday as Josh Jacobs remains away from the team.
The Packers and RB Chris Brooks have agreed to terms on a two-year deal worth $4.85 million.
Fantasy Impact
Green Bay was able to avoid putting a $3.5 million one-year tender on Brooks. He'll remain in a depth role in the Packers backfield.
Chris Brooks carried the ball 13 times for a team-high 61 yards during the Packers' 16-3 loss to Minnesota in Week 18.
Fantasy Impact
Brooks got some extra action on Sunday as Green Bay rested a majority of its starters in preparation for next weekend's Wild Card playoff game. Brooks entered the game with 14 carries for 45 yards all season, so he will return to his limited role for the postseason.
Chris Brooks rushed once for four yards in the Packers' 22-16 loss to the Bears in Week 16.
Fantasy Impact
Brooks continues to see little involvement out of the Green Bay backfield, seeing two touches or less in each of his last four games. The running back can be left off rosters in all formats ahead of a Week 17 contest against the Baltimore Ravens.
