Massive blow to the Philadelphia Eagles and their chances to repeat as NFC East champions as it came out that their starting right guard Brandon Brooks will be missing the 2020 NFL season after tearing his achilles.
In a post on Twitter, after reports had already come out that Brooks would be missing this upcoming season, he confirmed the news. “So I guess now that news is out yes I tore my other Achilles but when life gives you lemons you make lemonade. I’ll be back and better than ever. Appreciate the love.”
