SCOUTING NOTEBOOK
The read right now
The playoff contribution warrants attention, but it is not evidence of a full-time 2026 receiving role. Verify weekly usage before promoting a breakout claim.
The production
Opened 2026 against East Carolina with two receptions for 23 yards and a rushing attempt.
Latest game
Alabama’s final Florida State game book lists Brooks as its receiving leader with 101 yards.
NEXT CHECK
Determine whether the larger receiving output reflects sustained route and target opportunity.
BOWMAN CHECKLIST
His 2026 Bowman cards
Paper and Chrome are separate prospect entries. Prospect autographs add a verified signature checklist appearance; inserts and variations are separate collecting paths. This is a format hierarchy, not a price or scarcity ranking.
Topps describes parallels, but a complete first-party football odds/serial-number matrix was not available in this audit. No baseball parallel structure is imported. Serial numbering is not an estimate of total print run.
2 base appearances · 2 autograph appearances · 0 insert / variation appearances. Counts describe checklist rows, not distinct print runs.
These are the official checklist appearances we have mapped. We only show serial numbering when we can source it.
