Carolina Panthers running back Jonathon Brooks was finally able to put on his pads at an NFL training camp.Tuesday's session proved to be another showcase for Brooks, who is progressing through his first healthy offseason as a pro. The 23-year-old shined this morning, putting his speed and suddenness on displayas he did during spring workouts.He was asked about the session afterwards. "It felt good. It felt good to be back out there," Brooks stated. "I'm just trusting the process that the trainers and coaches have for me. And just ultimately, believing in myself throughout the whole rehab process. And it was a blessing to be back out there."Between two ACL tears to his right knee, one from college and one from his rookie campaign, Brooks has been limited to just three games since being drafted back in 2024. After being sidelined for the entirety of the 2025 campaign, the former second-round pick seems likely to factor into the Carolina offense from the jumpeven drawing whispers of earning a featured role down the line.Perhaps that role is closer than some may think, as Brooks told reporters that he is moving without hesitation in his cuts."I feel like I'm back to 100 percent, getting out there, having fun with it," he later added.Brooks is expected to share the workload out of the backfieldat least early onwith projected starter Chuba Hubbard. Hubbard, who is coming off a injury-riddled 2025, led the Panthers in rushing in three of the past five seasons.Follow@ThePanthersWireon Twitter/X for more Panthers content.This article originally appeared on Panthers Wire: Panthers RB Jonathon Brooks shares best possible news on his status
