Player Outlook

A no-nonsense back who played at nearly 230 pounds at Texas Tech and provided some of the best pass-protection film of any incoming rookie, Brooks feels like a perfect complement to Chase Brown's explosive play creation. Brooks certainly offers creativity of his own as an excellent processor and block-setter, but he simply lacks the top-end speed that Brown offers. However, Brown's big-play hunting sometimes comes at the expense of negative plays. Brooks was one of the most consistently successful down-to-down runners in the 2025 class and may prove to be the better option at keeping the Cincinnati Bengals run game on track. Brooks also has experience and highly efficient data as a man/gap runner, and the Bengals used man/gap-scheme blocking at the fifth-highest rate in the NFL in 2024. The fit feels perfect, and Brooks makes a lot of sense as a priority bench stash for Fantasy football drafters.

Bengals' Tahj Brooks: Taken by Cincinnati in sixth round

Rotowire Apr 26, 2025

The Bengals selected Brooks in the sixth round of the 2025 NFL Draft, 193rd overall. Brooks was a four-year starter at Texas Tech, breaking the school record with 4,560 career rushing yards while posting back-to-back 1,500-yard seasons in his junior and sophomore seasons. He's a compact back with a 5-foot-9, 214-pound frame, and his tempo and vision allows him to navigate through defenses to pick up tough yards. Though he's not the fastest back in the draft, Brooks displayed his quickness at the 2025 NFL Combine with a 4.06-second shuttle time and 6.90-second three-cone time. Chase Brown (ankle) and Zack Moss (neck) are the Bengals' top two running backs, but Brooks will have a shot to compete against veteran Samaje Perine for the No. 3 job.
