Rear Brake Stuck - Need Help

[CJR]

I was loading my CR 250 onto the truck today and the rear wheel slid of of the metal ramp and my rear brake lever took a hard hit. The brake level is fine, didn't bend or break, but my rear brake is stuck about 25% of the way on. The pads are rubbing when I wheel the bike enough for it to not be normal. The brake lever moves freely and isn't stuck on whatsoever so I am confused why the brake won't release.

Any ideas on trouble shooting? I haven't messed with it yet and figured I might save some time if this has happened to someone else.

Thanks

It may have bent in and is catching on the frame of engine case in the down position. It might be as simple as bending it back outward a little.
