Jordyn Brooks brings NFL-ready range and downhill violence to Texas Tech lore
In his Texas Tech career, Jordyn Brooks finished as one of the program’s top linebackers, ranking seventh all-time with 367 tackles and flashing the sideline-to-sideline speed, hard-hitting style, and pass-coverage versatility that made him a first-round NFL pick. Scouts praised his quick diagnosis, closing burst, and ability to play as a rangy weakside fit, while noting he can be less effective when stacked up by blocks. If your team wants a linebacker who plays fast, tackles cleanly, and brings a tone-setter’s edge, Brooks is exactly that kind of problem.
