Jason Arnaz Brookins (born January 5, 1976) is a former professional American football running back who played one season for the Baltimore Ravens of the National Football League. He played college football at Lane College in Jackson, Tennessee.
Professional career
[edit]Brookins ran for 551 yards with 5 touchdowns on 151 carries with the Ravens in 2001. He took over the starting position after an injury to Jamal Lewis.[1]
On June 3, 2002, Brookins would sign with the Green Bay Packers. He was released from the Packers after a misunderstanding. He left camp unexcused after being asked to turn in his playbook. It is common practice that when a player is released from an organization, that they must return their playbook. However the Packers did not plan to release him. They just wanted to update his playbook.[2] On August 28, Brookins would be placed on the exempt list by the NFL. He would formally be released from the Packers the following day.[3]
