NFL: Panthers place RB Jonathon Brooks on PUP list, out for 2025

The Carolina Panthers placed running back Jonathon Brooks on the physically unable to perform list Thursday because of the torn ACL he sustained late last season.

Brooks’ move to the PUP list means he’s out for the entire 2025 season.

Carolina’s rushing attack last year was led by Chuba Hubbard.

Signed to a four-year, $33.2 million contract extension in November, Hubbard recorded career-high totals in rushing yards (1,195), rushing touchdowns (10) and catches (43) in 15 games (all starts) last season.

Brooks saw his rookie season come to an end after just three games and nine total carries following his right knee injury during the Panthers’ 22-16 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles on Dec. 8.

On a first-quarter run, Brooks planted his right foot in an attempt to cut to the outside and went down with a non-contact injury. He tried to limp off the field but had to be helped to the sideline.

A second-round draft pick out of Texas, Brooks still was recovering from ACL surgery on the same knee when the 2024 season began. His previous ACL injury occurred in the Longhorns’ victory over TCU in November 2023.

Brooks, 21, made his NFL debut on Nov. 24 against the Kansas City Chiefs and gained 7 yards on two carries. He gained 18 yards on six carries the following week against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers before he was injured on his lone carry in Philadelphia.
