No Pitch Count For Jonathon Brooks In Debut

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport confirms that Panthers RB Jonathon Brooks (knee) will make his NFL debut against the Chiefs today and adds that "he won't be on a pitch count." Carolina has slow-played Brooks' return from his November 2023 ACL tear, so he should be close to 100% at this point. But we're still expecting Chuba Hubbard to operate as Carolina's clear lead back today. Coupled with the matchup against Kansas City's top-ranked RB defense, Brooks would be a very shaky Week 12 fantasy play.
