Bryan Braman, a former NFL linebacker who won Super Bowl LII with the Philadelphia Eagles, died Thursday after being diagnosed with cancer earlier this year. He was 38.

Braman played his college ball at West Texas A&M and signed with the Houston Texans as an undrafted free agent in 2011. He spent three seasons with the Texans before joining the Eagles in 2014. He had a blocked punt in one of the Eagles' playoff wins during their run to their first Super Bowl title back in 2017-18.
