  "account": "Linebacker Jordyn Brooks of the 2026 Miami Dolphins believes the team must adopt an \"us against the world\" mentality. As a seasoned veteran among a roster of young players, Brooks' role is crucial in player development. The team's construction has led many to predict a disappointing season, with the Dolphins potentially finishing at the bottom of the league. During a press conference, Brooks acknowledged the predictability, stating, \"I don’t think there’s one outlet on social media, anybody that’s got us picked to win anything.\" Despite this, Brooks firmly believes the team will face every opponent with an underdog mentality. He emphasized, \"I don’t think any of our opponents respect us. So, 100 percent underdog mindset and I think that’s always the best position to be in.\" Brooks recently signed a three-year extension with the Dolphins, aiming to help the team become a more formidable opponent before the deal concludes.",
