From the article

Brooks played 37 snaps compared to MarShawn Lloyd's 30, but the latter registered 13 carries compared to the former's nine. Neither did a whole lot behind a bad offensive line that forgot how to maintain blocking assignments against the absolute blitzkrieg Brian Flores' defense put on in the second half, but I don't know how that situation is supposed to change for the better this season. Josh Jacobs' imminent legal situation complicates this somewhat, but Brooks' utility as a reliable pass blocker should take precedence if Week 1's shocking fourth-quarter loss is any indication. Volume is king in fantasy, but so too is playing time, and Brooks is going to see more of it in the weeks to come.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalRole

Brooks' pass-blocking value and snap share position him for increased playing time.

Brooks played 37 snaps compared to MarShawn Lloyd's 30 in Week 1, though Lloyd registered more carries (13 vs. 9). Despite the Packers' offensive line struggles against Brian Flores' blitz-heavy defense, Brooks' utility as a reliable pass blocker should take precedence going forward. Volume is king in fantasy, but playing time matters too, and Brooks is positioned to see more of it in the weeks to come.
