Tanner Brooks brings versatile, high-motor toughness to Idaho’s defense
A Spokane, Washington product, Tanner Brooks has the look of a classic fit-for-the-system linebacker: big-bodied at 6'3", 265 pounds, physical, and apparently comfortable doing the dirty work. Idaho’s roster bio lists him as a linebacker, and his background suggests real all-around athleticism and competitiveness—he was a high-impact multi-sport type in high school, showing production and toughness that translate well to special teams and linebacker depth. If you need a disciplined, hard-nosed defender with size, effort, and developmental upside, Brooks is the kind of player worth a serious look.
