From College to NFL Starter
Aaron Brewer's journey began at Texas State, where he started 47 games and earned multiple All-Sun Belt selections, including Second-team honors in his senior year. Pro Football Focus graded him as the conference's top run blocker in his junior season and highest overall in his final year at 82.8.
Undrafted in 2020, he signed with the Titans and quickly earned a roster spot. Brewer started his first game at left guard against the Ravens, contributing to a win where Derrick Henry rushed for 133 yards. He evolved into a full-time starter, playing left guard in 2022 and moving to center in 2023, starting all 17 games each year.
His pre-draft measurables—6 ft 1⅞ in, 274 lbs—highlighted his compact, powerful build suited for interior line play.
Thriving with the Dolphins
Brewer signed with Miami as an unrestricted free agent on March 15, 2024, filling a critical center void. In his debut 2024 season, he started all 17 games, playing 100% of offensive snaps with just five holding penalties and one false start, allowing zero sacks—a career best.
Entering 2025, Brewer continues to excel, with early penalty logs showing only two accepted penalties for 15 yards through five games, including a 10-yard holding call against the Panthers. His low infraction rate underscores his discipline and technique.
Scouts praise Brewer as 'quietly one of the better centers in football,' crediting his athleticism for thriving in Miami's speed-based scheme alongside stars like Tyreek Hill.
2025 Season Impact
As of December 2025, Brewer's performance bolsters the Dolphins' offense, described as the NFL's most fascinating unit. His penalty efficiency—3.25 yards per game average—ranks favorably, with most flags declined, minimizing drive disruptions.
Career stats reveal Brewer's growth: 75 games, 57 starts, 3,878 snaps, 17 sacks allowed over five seasons. In 2025, he likely plays key matchups like Week 15, maintaining his ironman status.
Brewer's consistency positions Miami for playoff contention, making him a linchpin in their global/US fanbase's excitement.
