2024 Fantasy Outlook
Brents, a second-round 2023 draft pick, moved into a starting role last year and improved in coverage but missed much of the season with injuries. Brents dealt with a pre-draft wrist issue that caused him to miss the firs two regular season games. He then suffered a mid-season quad injury that forced him to miss six games, and a hamstring issue that forced him out of Indianapolis' season finale. He ended up recording 43 tackles (30 solo), six passes defended with one interception, one forced fumble and one fumble recovery across nine regular-season games. He enters camp as a likely starter at conerback. Read Past Outlooks

Knee - MCL
December 21, 2024
Brents (knee) won't be activated from IR on Saturday and has been downgraded to out for Sunday's tilt against the Titans.
ANALYSIS
Brents will remain on IR -- where's he's been since Sept. 10 -- for another week. The second-year cornerback did manage to log a trio of limited practices this week after being designated to return Wednesday, so it's still possible he will get back on the field before the end of the regular season. Brents' next opportunity to play will come Sunday, Dec. 29 versus the Giants.

Wide Receivers vs. Cornerbacks: Week 4 Matchups
85 days ago
George Pickens should get going against an Indianapolis defense with questionable boundary personnel
2023 Fantasy Outlook
Brents, selected in the second round of the 2023 NFL Draft, is a huge corner (6-3, 202 pounds) out of Kansas State with an outstanding wingspan, and he's additionally notable for the rare athleticism he boasts on that frame. While Brents' 4.53-second 40 is slightly below average, his 41.5-inch vertical and 138-inch broad jump are numbers you don't often see. Brents should project particularly well in a Cover-3 type of scheme, but tools like his might prove starter-worthy in any scheme. He'll compete for a key role in the Colts' secondary this summer.
