Default Brake rattle

If I press the brake pedal I feel a rattle in the brake pedal. If I press lightly, I don't feel anything, but the harder I press the more it is there.

It is as if sprockets are there and once the car comes to a halt I can press through, as if the sprockets lock into each other now.

What could it be?

Warped or cracked rotor, loose caliper ... Pull the wheel and look it all over closely.
