Tahj Brooks 2025 Fantasy Football Outlook: Is Brooks the Preferred Chase Brown Handcuff?
The Cincinnati Bengals selected running back Tahj Brooks in the sixth round of the 2025 NFL Draft. Brooks enjoyed a fine career at Texas Tech, which was highlighted by his final two seasons. He ran for over 1,500 yards and scored double-digit touchdowns in each of his last two years. While he fell in the NFL Draft, Brooks is a solid rusher who can produce if the right circumstances arise. Following the release of Zack Moss, Brooks will now battle veteran Samaje Perine for the Bengals' RB2 job. Perine is now 29 years old and has never been particularly effective. The team is reportedly quite bullish on Brooks' outlook, and if he plays well this summer, he may win the RB2 job outright. Either way, this is a battle that fantasy gamers should closely monitor as the Bengals RB2 will be in line for a massive workload if starter Chase Brown ever misses time. Brooks is not a priority late-round pick right now, but that will change if we start hearing reports he's climbing the team's depth chart.
