Professional career

Brookins ran for 551 yards with 5 touchdowns on 151 carries with the Ravens in 2001. He took over the starting position after an injury to Jamal Lewis. [1]

On June 3, 2002 Brookins would sign with the Green Bay Packers. He was released from the Packers after a misunderstanding. He left camp unexcused after being asked to turn in his playbook. It is common practice that when a player is released from an organization, that they must return their playbook. However the Packers did not plan to release him. They just wanted to update his playbook. [2] On August 28th, Brookins would be placed on the exempt list by the NFL. He would formally be released from the Packers the following day. [3]
