Bryan Braman cause of death explained
Bryan Braman, a 38-year-old former NFL player, died on Thursday, July 17.
He passed away after battling an aggressive form of cancer. Known for his fearless play and relentless drive, Braman spent his final weeks with the two people he cherished most, his daughters, Blakely, 11, and Marlowe, 8.
His agent, Sean Stellato, shared heartfelt memories with People, saying, “He loved his two girls so, so much. They were everything, his legacy.” Stellato, who called Braman his “true football brother,” explained that Braman was the first client he signed after launching Stellato Sports, cementing a lifelong bond between them.
Remembering Braman’s remarkable spirit, Stellato said, “I would say, a warrior in every sense, on the field and in life. He faced every battle with unshakable grit and heart. And his passing really leaves a void, not only in the football community, but in the spirit of really every underdog who ever had to fight to play this game of football.”
Braman’s most memorable career moment came during the Eagles’ Super Bowl LII triumph in the 2017 season. Stellato recalled celebrating on the field, holding one of Braman’s daughters as they both wept tears of joy. “Him [he] and I cried in each other’s arms when he won Super Bowl LII on the field,” he said.
Braman’s NFL journey began in 2011 when the Houston Texans signed him as a rookie free agent out of West Texas A&M. After three seasons with the Texans, he became a priority free agent for the Eagles in 2014. There, he played four seasons and etched his name into franchise history.
Stellato says that he believes Braman’s legacy will endure through the “fight, the spirit, and the love he gave so freely.”
