Brooks has a full practice Wed

Canales has remained very coach-speak-y about his debut, but sounds like it could/should be happening and if he's practicing in full, looks like he should be ahead of the window closing next Wed.

On Wednesday, rookie running back Jonathon Brooks was a full participant at practice, which is paving the way for him to potentially make his NFL debut on Sunday against New Orleans.  

"We've got to look at him for the full week," Canales said of Brooks during his Wednesday presser, via ESPN. "Again, Jonathon first. Thinking about him, making sure that he's confident and ready to go, so we're going to stack up a few more days here before we make that decision."

still a LONG time since he has played football.  None at NFL speed.  I still wouldn't rush him into a NFL pounding.  I'd probably prefer him see a couple full weeks of practice first. 

New guys, even Luke, come in completely blown away by the speed of the NFL. Expectations should be tempered, but my fantasy team is hurting for a stud RB. The Chuba train may have come to a halt.

This is the right outlook. He's going to be rusty and out of football shape. It will require a few weeks minimum for him to get back up to speed.
