Brandon Brooks remembers the feeling that would consume him even when he was at home, away from the team facility.
It'd be about 7 p.m. — a good time to unwind after a long day of practice, film sessions and meetings. But that felt like an impossibility to Brooks. Even if he'd had a great day at the office, there was always one misstep that he couldn't get out of his head.
“Practice has been over for four or five hours, and I’m still thinking about the f-cking mistake that I made once out of the whole day,” Brooks told The Athletic.
