Back in January, the Philadelphia Eagles were on their last leg. Despite an injury-plagued season resulting in barley squeezing into the playoffs, the Eagles simply just didn’t have any juice left. By the time their matchup with the New Orleans Saints came about, the Eagles had started off hot but quickly burned out. And it all began with a major injury to a key player.
Eagles’ right guard Brandon Brooks has been playing at a high level for quite a few years now. Last season was no different. While the Eagles’ offensive line had its issues when it came to injuries, Brooks remained healthy and on top of his game.
