Mandatory Credit: Jim Dedmon-Imagn Images The Carolina Panthers are opening the 21-day practice window for rookie running back Jonathon Brooks, head coach Dave Canales said Monday.
Brooks, 21, was the first running back selected in the 2024 NFL Draft, going to the Panthers in the second round with the 46th overall pick out of Texas.
He opened the season on the non-football injury list while still recovering from a torn ACL sustained last November.
"He's checked all the boxes in terms of his getting back to being able to practice," Canales said. "So, we're hoping to open up that window (Monday)."
Brooks rushed for 1,139 yards and 10 touchdowns in 11 games for the Longhorns last season before getting hurt in a Nov. 11 win at TCU.
The Panthers (1-5) have a three-game losing streak heading into their Week 7 game at Washington (4-2).
