I thought this was just a bicep strain. The no news makes me doubt he will ever play for the Eagles again. 

This. The longer it goes without hearing anything, I get the feeling the Eagles don't want to activate him. They've moved on.

I'm reading a lot of speculation - but no facts.  Let's see what happens.

That's what we do!  Fact-free speculation is what feeds the beast.

Maybe they are waiting to see about playoffs.  He would be a huge upgrade over Herbig at RG if they get into the playoffs.

Twp games left in the season and he is still at IR.  The snaps are better to go to the back-up players for experience or knowing what they have.  Doubt that Brooks will play this season, unless the team makes playoff and OL needs a boost.

I mean Brooks is a stud, but Herbig has more than held his own. I’m not so sure I’d say Brooks would be a "huge upgrade” at this point.

I think he would be. Now if Driscoll was still available though…

When Brooks is on his game, he's the best in the business.

And he’s been constantly injured. So we have no clue what he’d even look like if he was able to play right now.

Herbig is a weak link in pass protection relative to the rest of the line.  But I agree he is not playing poorly.  I do think Brooks is a huge upgrade if he comes back at former level, which he has each time he has come back from injury.  Doesn’t seem like he is coming back for whatever reason.
