Agrees to three-year extension
Brooks and the Dolphins agreed to terms Tuesday on a three-year, $51.3 million contract extension, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Brooks led the NFL with 183 total tackles (99 solo), including 3.5 sacks, last year while playing all 17 regular-season games, and he added three passes defensed, one forced fumble and one fumble recovery. He had been heading into the final year of his contract, but instead Brooks will remain with the Dolphins as a long-term pillar for the defense. The veteran LB has entrenched himself as a high-end fantasy asset in IDP formats, and Miami also brought in a younger player for him to mentor in the form of 2026 second-round pick Jacob Rodriguez.
