Brooks' lead-back role and positive training camp suggest he could displace Hubbard.

Despite having a career year in 2025 and replacing Chuba Hubbard as the lead running back, the Panthers showed their faith in Brooks by letting Rico Dowdle walk in free agency this offseason, despite him playing in only three contests during his two-year NFL career because of multiple ACL injuries. Reportedly, the former Texas star has had a positive offseason and has been a standout guy at the start of Carolina's training camp. Fanelli doesn't be surprised if Brooks takes the starting running back job from Hubbard sooner than later.
