The AFC South blog asked Texans rookie guard Brandon Brooks what he would be doing if there was no football in his life.

Here’s his reply:

“I’d be teaching. I’d probably teach psychology, that’s what I got my undergrad in. I loved every class I took in psychology. Hopefully when this is all over with, I can go back, go to grad school, take a practice, do all of that stuff, become a teacher. I wouldn’t say you can tell the future with psychology, but you kind of understand why people make the decisions they make, the thought process they go through before they make that decision. … I’d say it already comes into play when it comes to meeting people and reading people.”
