Six touches in preseason win

Brooks rushed five times for 12 yards and brought in his only target for one yard in the Packers' 33-13 preseason win over the Broncos on Friday.

Brooks was the second Packers running back to log a touch behind MarShawn Lloyd, recording his first carry on the play immediately before the latter's 11-yard touchdown reception. Brooks has managed to hold on to a depth running back role in Green Bay in each of the last two seasons thanks in part to his ability to contribute on special teams, but this summer, he's facing a challenge from veteran Pierre Strong, who recorded 37 rushing yards and 89 kickoff-return yards Friday.
