On the ODST Field Guide on bungie.net, the Brute's discription says:
BRUTE (Jiralhanae)
Massive and ape-like. Many have been observed speaking human languages. Depending on location and MOS they will be encountered in groups up to eight.
They are fearless, vicious opponents and must not be underestimated. Currently, they fill the command role that Elites occupied previously . Whether or not this is indicative of a power shift within the Covenant is of no consequence to the current operation. ANYTHING that seeks to obstruct the successful completion of your mission is a legitimate target.
This is just a theory, as it may just say this because at this point the elietes were protecting the prophet of regret.
