Summary
Tahj Brooks carries a 42.0 dynasty score, ranking 168 at RB. At 24 years old with 3 years remaining on his contract, Brooks has a stable position in the Bengals’ offense.
Projection Rationale
Brooks’ 16 receptions and 45 rushing yards indicate a stable role, but his snap share trend is concerning. His 50th percentile efficiency grade and 75th percentile durability grade suggest he can maintain production. However, his 6th percentile production grade and 29th percentile usage grade indicate room for improvement. With 3 years remaining on his contract, Brooks’ role security is stable.
Injury Risk
No injury entries in 2025. Brooks’ 75th percentile durability grade and 24-year-old age profile suggest a moderate risk of injury.
Opportunity Notes
Brooks’ 12.0% snap share percentage is stable, but his competition for carries and targets is uncertain. His usage grade suggests he may be impacted by the Bengals’ backfield situation.
Scheme Fit Analysis
Dan Pitcher coordinates a McVay-tree offense with a high shotgun rate and play-action rate. The Bengals’ run rate and pass-heavy approach should benefit Brooks’ rushing production.
Trend Assessment
Rising. The Bengals’ high shotgun rate and play-action rate should benefit Brooks’ usage, and his 29th percentile usage grade is improving.
Ceiling / Floor
Ceiling: RB2-RB3 with increased usage and efficiency. Floor: RB4-RB5 if volume decreases or Brooks loses the role. His trade value suggests a lower floor.
