  "account": "Panthers running back Jonathon Brooks is dealing with a recurring groin injury, placing him in a \"week-to-week\" status pending further medical evaluations, reports Tom Pelissero. The ailment surfaced during Sunday's matchup against the Falcons, re-injuring the same area he had previously harmed during the NFL's preseason. Initially sidelined in training camp due to his recurring groin issue, Brooks had been assured by the Panthers that he would not face any limitations when the regular season commenced. However, his personal injury history indicates that this is not the first time his career has been curtailed by physical ailments. Throughout his NFL tenure, Brooks' career has been significantly hampered by injuries. Despite being selected by the Panthers in the second round of the 2024 draft, he had already been wrestling with a torn ACL in his right knee at the conclusion of his college career. As a rookie, he further compounded matters by tearing the same ACL, leading him to spend the entirety of the 2025 season on the sidelines. In his third professional season, Brooks has yet to accumulate a single rushing first down. To date, his career statistics are sparse, with only 52 yards amassed on 18 rushing attempts throughout his professional journey.",
