Slowing down Brockers (ankle) recorded four tackles and one pass breakup over six games in 2022.
Impact Once a dependable piece up front, the 32-year-old Brockers showed clear signs of decline early on this year, and he was largely a healthy scratch for the majority of the games after Detroit's Week 6 bye, though he was listed as out with an ankle injury for the season's final contest.
