Brooks has a full practice Wed

[Bear Hands]

Canales has remained very coach-speak-y about his debut, but sounds like it could/should be happening and if he's practicing in full, looks like he should be ahead of the window closing next Wed.  

Quote

On Wednesday, rookie running back Jonathon Brooks was a full participant at practice, which is paving the way for him to potentially make his NFL debut on Sunday against New Orleans.  

"We've got to look at him for the full week," Canales said of Brooks during his Wednesday presser, via ESPN. "Again, Jonathon first. Thinking about him, making sure that he's confident and ready to go, so we're going to stack up a few more days here before we make that decision."

good, lets see what we got

anxious to see him on the field.

Honestly, not expecting much initially. It'll take a couple of weeks to get into game shape and adjust to the speed. He didn't even participate in OTAs. We should see what we really have in a month.

still a LONG time since he has played football.  None at NFL speed.  I still wouldn't rush him into a NFL pounding.  I'd probably prefer him see a couple full weeks of practice first.

New guys, even Luke, come in completely blown away by the speed of the NFL. Expectations should be tempered, but my fantasy team is hurting for a stud RB. The Chuba train may have come to a halt.

I have had him sitting in my Fantasy Football IR slot all season. Doubt it was worth it, but I am a homer.

would love for him to take miles sanders roll and maybe we can trade miles for a 7th to a RB needy team after this weeks game.

They should bring him along very slowly to primarily get him ready for next year.  This year is done and Chuba is playing fantastic.  

[PootieNunu]

If he is ready give him 5 or so touches to ease him in

This is the right outlook. He's going to be rusty and out of football shape. It will require a few weeks minimum for him to get back up to speed.
