Impact Brooks narrowly lost to K.J. Wright for the weak-side linebacker job to begin the season, but the rookie first-rounder appears locked into a starting role moving forward. While he might forfeit some snaps to Cody Barton, Brooks should be the primary backer with potential to play a three-down role. He's only played 15 defensive snaps this season and recorded one tackle.

Competing for starting role Brooks will compete with K.J. Wright for the starting weak-side linebacker role during training camp, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.
Impact The Seahawks selected Brooks 27th overall in April's draft with the hope that he could eventually play all three linebacker positions, but the Texas Tech product will focus on securing one job for now. Through the first few days of camp, head coach Pete Carroll seemingly wants veteran Bruce Irvin to play strong-side linebacker on early downs and defensive end on passing downs, so that means Brooks' best chance at a starting job is to beat out Wright. That will be a difficult endeavor, consider Wright is coming off a career year where he racked up 132 tackles, 11 pass breakups and three interceptions. Brooks has impressive athleticism and physical specs working in his favor, but it wouldn't be surprise if he had to settle for a small rotational role to begin his rookie campaign.
