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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
