Jasper Brinkley NFL Draft Bio

Jasper Jerrell Brinkley (born July 12, 1985) is an American football linebacker for the Arizona Cardinals of the National Football League. He played college football for the University of South Carolina. He was drafted by the Minnesota Vikings in the fifth round of 2009 NFL Draft (150 overall).

Brinkley started at middle-linebacker due to the injury of E. J. Henderson during the 2009 season. Henderson seriously injured his leg against the Arizona Cardinals in week 13, and was out the remainder of the season. Brinkley has had a very close, apprentice-like relationship with Henderson who mentored him as a rookie throughout training camp and his first professional season, even quizzing him while watching film together. His twin brother, Casper Brinkley, played for the Carolina Panthers but is no longer with the team.

Brinkley played college football at South Carolina as junior college transfers from Georgia Military College alongside his twin brother Casper. He started 29 of 30 games. He finished his career with 298 total tackles, 27.5 sacks, 30.5 tackles for a loss and 10 interceptions. As a senior, Brinkley captured All-SEC 1st-team honors as he started all but 1 game for the Gamecocks and ranked 2nd on the squad with 73 tackles.
