Braman was diagnosed earlier this year and had
multiple surgeries in recent months in an attempt to treat the
illness. He died Thursday morning, according to a statement
issued by the team.
“We are deeply saddened to learn of the passing of Bryan Braman,”
the team said. “During his four seasons in Philadelphia, Bryan
was a loyal teammate, a supporter of the community, and a
valuable member of our Super Bowl LII-winning team. More
importantly, he was a devoted father who passionately loved his
family and everyone around him. We extend our deepest
condolences to Bryan’s family and all who are grieving his loss
during this difficult time.”
Signed as an undrafted free agent by the Texans in 2011, Braman
played seven seasons in the NFL. He spent his first three in
Houston and last four in Philadelphia. The Eagles beat the
Patriots 41-33 to win the franchise’s first Super Bowl in
Braman’s final game on Feb. 4, 2018. He gave a fiery speech in
the locker room before that game.
Braman had 56 tackles, 1 1/2 sacks and two fumble recoveries in
97 career games.
