Brooks played his high school football at Dunnellon. He made Florida’s 3A All-State Team as a defensive back after his senior season in 2009. Considered a 3-star college football prospect, he finished his junior season with six interceptions with 53 tackles. As a junior, he ran for over 500 yards before moving to wide receiver for his senior season.
