A.J. Brooks brings burst, patience, and proven freshman production to Boston College
In the 2025 season, Boston College RB A.J. Brooks showed real early-career juice: 57 carries for 319 yards and 3 touchdowns, plus a 160-yard, 2-TD breakout in his first collegiate start against Massachusetts[1]. At 5-foot-11 and 199 pounds, he already has a compact build for contact, and BC’s roster notes point to a back who earned playing time as a true freshman and handled a go-ahead drive with both a catch and a long run[1]. Why care? He looks like a versatile, confident runner with upside if his workload keeps growing[1].
