Brenard Wilson

Brenard Kenric Wilson (born August 15, 1955), is an American former professional football player who was a safety in the National Football League (NFL) for the Philadelphia Eagles from 1979 to 1987.

As a rookie in 1979, Wilson took over from John Sanders as the Eagle starting free safety, doing a credible job with 4 interceptions.

With Wilson and Randy Logan as the strong-side safety, the Eagles won the NFC Championship Game of the 1980-81 NFL playoffs against the Dallas Cowboys, but lost Super Bowl XV to the Oakland Raiders.

In 1982, he had only 1 interception and was replaced in 1983 by Wes Hopkins, who had greater range in the defensive secondary.
