Mandatory Credit: Jim Dedmon-Imagn Images Carolina Panthers rookie running back Jonathon Brooks will see his season end after just three games and nine total carries after he tore the ACL in his right knee during Sunday's 22-16 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles.
On a first-quarter run, Brooks planted his right foot in an attempt to cut to the outside and went down with a non-contact injury. He tried to limp off the field but had to be helped to the sideline.
A second-round draft pick out of Texas, Brooks was still recovering from ACL surgery on the same knee when the current season began. His previous ACL injury occurred in Texas' victory over TCU in November 2023.
Brooks, 21, made his NFL debut in Week 11 against the Kansas City Chiefs and gained 7 yards on two carries. He gained 18 yards on six carries in Week 13 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, before he was injured on his lone carry Sunday.
