That bracket just keeps the brake cable safe. I think you accidentally bent one of the dust shields. It's easy to do without even realizing it. Get underneath it and spin each of the rear wheels by hand. I bet you'll immediately find the source.
Also, the pads are supposed to touch the rotor. To prove it to yourself, separate a pair like you did but this time, notice that your brake pedal sinks to the floor the first time you press it.
