Antonio Brooks brings seasoned, downhill safety play to Houston
Antonio Brooks has been a physical, assignment-sound DB for Houston, appearing in eight games with six starts in the 2023 season and previously serving as a key special-teams contributor in 2021. He’s not flashy, but he’s sturdy, experienced, and trusted in multiple safety spots — the kind of player who helps clean up mistakes and stabilize a defense. Houston’s coaching staff also valued him enough to send him to Big 12 Pro Day in 2024, which says plenty about his football credibility.
