News broke earlier this week that former Army OT Brett Toth was waiting on a ‘military waiver’ in order to sign a contract with the Philadelphia Eagles. Today, he received some very good news.
A second lieutenant who graduated in 2018 as a nuclear engineer, Toth served one year in the military and has now been granted an early opportunity to pursue an NFL career.
Toth has been out of Football for a year, but started 20 games at right tackle for Army during his final two seasons, going on to play in both the Senior Bowl and East-West Shrine Game. Measuring at 6’6, 291 lbs, Toth has 33 3/8-inch arms and an 80 5/8 wingspan.
At this point, he’s going to be a longshot to make the roster, but could absolutely have practice squad potential. We’ve seen the work Jeff Stoutland has done with Jordan Mailata and there’s no reason the Eagles can’t mold another Diamond in the rough.
