By Tyler Reed

Former Philadelphia Eagles linebacker Bryan Braman has passed away at 38 years old after a battle with a rare cancer.
According to Mitch Fink of the New York Post, "Braman was diagnosed with the aggressive disease in February and had undergone several surgeries in Seattle, according to a GoFundMe set up to help him pay for the expenses of the treatment."

Braman spent seven seasons in the NFL, starting his career with the Houston Texans, then, after three seasons in Houston, found his home with the Philadelphia Eagles, where he would spend four seasons.
Braman was a part of an Eagles team that won arguably the most shocking Super Bowl in NFL history when they took down the New England Patriots with Nick Foles leading the way at quarterback.
In seven seasons, Braman finished his career with 56 tackles and two fumble recoveries.
