Since then, Brooks has made up with his coaches, expressed his disappointment in himself and how he acted, and everyone seemed to be back on the same page.
Against Washington on Sunday, Brooks was in there to recover a Robert Griffin fumble following a Justin Smith sack that sealed the game.
For a look at their playing time in the 49ers' game against Washington, Matt Maiocco of CSN Bay Area compiled the statistics for linebackers Aldon Smith, Ahmad Brooks and Aaron Lynch. They are as follows.
Aldon Smith
52 snaps, 3 tackles, 2 sacks, 4 quarterback hurries
Ahmad Brooks
37 snaps, 3 tackles, 1 pass defended, 1 fumble recovery
Aaron Lynch
21 snaps, 2 tackles, 1 sack
It was not a bad performance for the trio of outside linebackers.
