Brooks: Dolphins Ready for 'Us Against the World'
2 Sep
Summary
- Jordyn Brooks is a rare veteran on a young Dolphins team.
- Brooks believes opponents do not respect the Dolphins.
- Brooks signed a three-year extension in July.
Linebacker Jordyn Brooks stands out as a seasoned veteran on the predominantly young 2026 Dolphins roster. With the team focused heavily on player development and widely predicted to finish at the bottom of the league, Brooks acknowledges an underdog mindset is inevitable.
Brooks shared in a recent press conference that the team has no choice but to adopt this perspective, as no external predictions favor them. He further noted a perceived lack of respect from opponents, reinforcing a collective "us against the world" mentality. This approach is seen as the best position to enter the season, with the goal of winning games.
Despite being part of a rebuilding effort, Brooks committed to the Dolphins by signing a three-year extension in July. He is now tasked with guiding the team toward becoming a more competitive force before his contract concludes.
