In the limited time Jalen brooks have been in the games ( last 2 ) he is proving to be a liability in the catching or blocking responsibilities, but in NFL you don’t get too many opportunities unfortunately , from what could I see Flourney is definitely a better blocker and he scored against 1- tier CBs.

brooks had two big screw ups yesterday directly contributing to the loss. first the missed block for Cook....and then he slips without being touched!!! which led to interception...

Yes, his time is up... We need to see Flournoy... I bet Flournoy catches that deep ball that brooks did no effort to catch the ball.... That play should of either been a catch or PI.....

And to add...
Maybe he could get the line of scrimmage separation with his straight line speed that the 2 Jalen brothers struggle with.

I liked what little we saw from Brooks last year, but he is getting a decent amount of run this year and its not happening

I'm all for it, there needs to be competition for playing at the end of the roster. Brooks hasn't done anything to have a cemented spot. Besides, Flournoy has some juice this offense needs.

Worst thing to do is bench him...see what the Panther team is doing to their franchise QB. Guess Diggs, Carson, et al should be benched for tackling like the "Ckear Eye View" himself yesterday. How many tackles to Diggs pull up on...

That slip cost us. Not blaming the game on him but that ball was placed for him to catch and keep going. And we were going to score. Pull ourselves back into a ball game.

Brooks isn't a starter.
