By Grace Remington, Former Sports Editor
Brandon Brooks, offensive guard for the Philadelphia Eagles and Miami University ’11 graduate, talks with former sports editor Grace Remington about Brick Street Bar, his advice to the current football team and other Miami memories.
A third-round NFL draft choice by the Houston Texans in 2012, Brooks has been an NFL starter since 2013. After four seasons with Houston, he signed a five-year deal worth $40 million with the Eagles during the 2016 offseason.
Brooks played as an offensive lineman for the Miami football team from 2008-11 and was a member of the 2010 Mid-American Conference championship team.
