Dolphins' JuJu Brents: Back in action
Brents (undisclosed) was a full participant in Tuesday's practice. C. Isaiah Smalls II of the Miami Herald reports.
Brents suffered an injury in early August and returned to practice in a limited capacity last Tuesday. The cornerback is officially all set to go and could see some snaps during Friday's preseason finale against the Falcons if the Dolphins would like him to see some game-day reps before the regular season commences.

Dolphins' JuJu Brents: Nearing a return
Brents (undisclosed) is trending in the right direction but did not participate in full-team drills against the Giants on Thursday, Alain Poupart of SI.com reports.
The cornerback suffered his injury Aug. 7 and then remained sidelined until Aug. 18, missing a team scrimmage and the Dolphins' preseason opener against the Commanders. When he did return to practice, he was limited. It's unclear if this issue is related to the foot injury that ended Brents' 2025 campaign and required surgery.

Dolphins' JuJu Brents: Missing time with injury
Brents (undisclosed) is not participating during training camp practices this week, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
It seems like he'll probably be out for Friday's preseason game at Washington as well. Brents needed surgery to address a foot injury that ended his 2025 season prematurely, but it's not clear whether that's related to his current status. Until he's available again, 2025 fifth-rounder Jason Marshall may see an uptick in reps on the boundary.

Dolphins' JuJu Brents: Ready for training camp
Brents is all set to participate in training camp, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.
Brents received foot surgery during the 2025 season after going down with a significant injury in November. The cornerback returns for a pivotal training camp, as cornerbacks Storm Duck (knee) and Darrell Baker (undisclosed) will be sidelined until midseason. If Brents can prove himself once again capable, he may enter Week 1 as the starting outside cornerback across from Chris Johnson.

Dolphins' JuJu Brents: Officially placed on IR
The Dolphins placed Brents (foot) on injured reserve Wednesday.
Brents is slated to miss the rest of the 2025 campaign and undergo season-ending surgery to address a right foot injury, so it's no surprise to see him land on IR. The Dolphins will need to count on rookie fifth-round pick Jason Marshall for additional defensive reps in Brents' stead, beginning Week 13 against the Saints.

Dolphins' JuJu Brents: Slated for season-ending surgery
Brents (foot) is expected to receive surgery that will sideline him for the remainder of the season, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Brents sustained the injury early in the fourth quarter of Sunday's overtime win over the Commanders, in what was his second start of the season. The Kansas State product put together a nice season after being waived by the Colts in August, tallying five tackles in consecutive games. His spot will likely be taken over by Jason Marshall.

Dolphins' JuJu Brents: Won't return Sunday
Brents has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Commanders due to a right ankle injury.
Brents sustained the injury early in the fourth quarter and after initially being listed as questionable to return, he was quickly ruled out for the rest of the day. Jason Marshall stepped in to replace him at one of the Dolphins' outside cornerback spots. Brents finished the game with five tackles.

Colts' JuJu Brents: Waived by Colts
Brents was waived by Indianapolis, the Indianapolis Star reports.
It's somewhat surprising the Colts released the 2023 second-round pick since it will incur a dead cap hit of more than $2.6 million and with the Colts struggling with injuries in the secondary in the preseason. Injuries have limited Brents to just 11 games the past two seasons, and he missed much of training camp with a hamstring injury.

Colts' JuJu Brents: Returns to practice
Brents returned to practice Wednesday after missing three weeks due to a hamstring injury, the Indianapolis Star reports.
Both Brents and Jaylon Jones returned to practice, so Indy's secondary is looking healthier as the regular season draws near. Brents missed most of last season after injuring his knee in the 2024 season opener. He missed the next 15 games before playing six defensive snaps in Week 18, only to then injure his groin. Brents has played in just 11 regular-season games since being taken in the second round of the 2023 Draft.

Colts' JuJu Brents: Remains without timetable
Coach Shane Steichen said Sunday that Brents (hamstring) remains without a timetable for return, James Boyd of The Athletic reports.
Brents was injured two weeks ago and had been idle in practice before missing Thursday's preseason opener against the Ravens. Brents missed most of last season after injuring his knee in the 2024 season opener. He missed the next 15 games before playing six defensive snaps in Week 18, only to then injure his groin. Brents has played in just 11 regular-season games since being taken in the second round of the 2023 Draft.

Colts' JuJu Brents: Dealing with hamstring issue
Colts head coach Shane Steichen said Tuesday that Brents is nursing a hamstring injury, James Boyd of The Athletic reports.
Brents got healthy from his groin injury during OTAs, but he's now sustained another soft tissue issue early during training camp. Fellow cornerback Jaylon Jones (hamstring) was carted off Tuesday due to a hamstring injury of his own. With both Brents and Jones sidelined, rookie third-round pick Justin Walley figures to benefit from increased reps at camp.

Colts' JuJu Brents: Back on field
Brents (groin) participated in Wednesday's organized team activities, Paul Bretl of USA Today reports.
Brents sustained a groin injury during Indianapolis' 2024 season finale, but his participation in Wednesday's OTAs suggests he's moved past the issue. The third-year corner from Kansas State has struggled to stay healthy in the NFL, appearing in just 11 regular-season games throughout his career. In that span, Brents has tallied 57 total tackles, six passes defended, including one interception, and one forced fumble. Now fully healthy, he's expected to serve as one of Indianapolis' top reserve cornerbacks in 2025.

Colts' JuJu Brents: Exits game due to groin injury
Brents (groin) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Jaguars, James Boyd of The Athletic reports.
Brents injured his groin during a Colts' punt return in the first quarter. Sunday's contest is Brents' first game back since tearing his MCL and meniscus in Week 1 against the Texans. Samuel Womack and Kenny Moore are candidate to fill in at outside corner opposite starter Jaylon Jones for as long as Brents is sidelined.

Colts' JuJu Brents: Activated, good to go for Week 18
Brents (knee) was activated off IR on Saturday and doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's matchup versus Jacksonville.
Brents had been on injured reserve since Sept. 10 after suffering a knee injury in Week 1 against Houston. The second-year cornerback resumed practicing Dec. 18, and though the Colts are out of playoff contention, he'll be able to take the field for the team's season finale against the Jaguars. Samuel Womack has worked as a starter most of the campaign with Brents sidelined, but Womack could yield some defensive snaps Sunday to the returning Brents.
