Amaurey Brooks is a depth DB on the rise for Fordham
Brooks has earned a larger role at Fordham, moving into the defensive back rotation in 2025 after limited freshman action, and he showed reliability by appearing in 11 games, making 3 solo tackles, and recovering a fumble. His background points to a high-tackle, physical defensive profile—at Rancho Cucamonga in 2023-24, he posted 69 total tackles, 5 pass breakups, 1 interception, and 1 forced fumble—suggesting a player who competes well in space and can contribute in multiple coverage phases. He looks like a solid fit if you want a developmental, assignment-sound DB with special-teams upside and some ball-production instincts.
