Eagles Place G Brandon Brooks On PUP List, Claim TE Caleb Wilson

The Philadelphia Eagles announced Tuesday that they’ve placed G Brandon Brooks on the active/PUP list and claimed TE Caleb Wilson off of waivers. 

Brooks tore his left Achilles tendon while working out at the NovaCare Complex back in June.

Brooks, 30, is a former third-round pick of the Texans back in 2012. He played out his rookie contract with the Texans before signing a five-year, $40 million contract with the Eagles that included $21 million guaranteed in 2016.

Brooks was set to make base salaries of $7.5 million over the final two years of the agreement when he signed a four-year extension with the Eagles last year worth $56.2 million in new money and $30 million guaranteed. 

In 2019, Brooks started all 16 games for the Eagles at right guard before being placed on injured reserve in January with a separated shoulder.
