Jordan Love Sends Condolences to Eagles Super Bowl champion's Family: "I Am Deeply Saddened to Hear of His Passing"

Green Bay, WI – In a rare moment away from the spotlight of the gridiron, Jordan Love, the star quarterback of the Green Bay Packers, has publicly expressed deep sorrow over the passing of former NFL player Bryan Braman. The news of Braman’s death, a Super Bowl champion with the Philadelphia Eagles in 2018, has sent shockwaves through the American football community after he passed away on July 17, 2025, at the age of 38 following a battle with a rare form of cancer.

Love, who has observed Braman’s career from the perspective of a rising young player, shared his emotions via a social media post on the afternoon of Friday, July 18, 2025. “I’m heartbroken to hear about Bryan Braman’s passing,” Love wrote. “He was a true warrior, not just on the field but in life. His dedication to football and love for his family are inspiring. My thoughts are with his children and family during this difficult time. Rest in peace, Bryan.”

Love’s condolences quickly went viral, garnering thousands of interactions from fans and peers alike. As one of the NFL’s brightest young talents, Love not only paid tribute to Braman – known for his standout special teams plays – but also highlighted the former player’s resilient spirit during his illness. Braman, who also played for the Houston Texans, left a legacy with 56 tackles and 1.5 sacks across 97 games over seven seasons.

Braman’s story, from an undrafted player to a Super Bowl champion, has touched the hearts of many, including Love. Though the two were never teammates, the respect among NFL athletes often transcends team lines, and Love’s statement is a testament to that bond. “I’ve gone back and watched some of his moments on the field, especially in Super Bowl LII,” Love added in a brief interview with local media. “He’s the kind of person every young player should look up to – never giving up, no matter the circumstances.”

Braman’s passing, confirmed by his agent Sean Stellato, has prompted tributes from former teammates like J.J. Watt and Emmanuel Acho. Love, as one of the NFL’s standout young leaders, chose to use his platform to honor a colleague while sending a message of unity within the football community.

Packers fans and football enthusiasts worldwide now turn their thoughts to Braman’s family, where he leaves behind two daughters aged 11 and 8. Love’s condolences are not just a humane gesture but also a reminder of life’s fragility, even for the toughest warriors on the field. In the days ahead, the NFL community will undoubtedly continue to remember Bryan Braman – a legend under the light of an unbreakable spirit.

Ex-Packers QB seen as Bengals’ “silver bullet” in return to Green Bay
Green Bay, WI — With the quarterback spot still unsettled, the Cincinnati Bengals are weighing Sean Clifford, a former Green Bay Packers draft pick, as a potential “silver bullet” at Lambeau Field this weekend. Clifford, a 2023 fifth-round selection by the Packers, spent his rookie season backing up Jordan Love before moving to Cincinnati, giving him familiarity with the Green Bay environment and in-game operations. According to team indications, if Clifford is tapped to start, he would likely be paired with a tailored script: quick-game throws, simplified play-action, and half-rollouts designed to limit turnovers and control tempo. On the Packers’ side, the defensive emphasis will be on setting the edge, forcing outside throws, and varying post-snap pressure to disrupt the quarterback’s first read. Sean Clifford: “Returning to Lambeau is a terrific feeling; I miss my time here. They gave me things I haven’t found elsewhere. But this time, we’re opponents — I respect the fans and this organization, and the best way to show that respect is to play my hardest and help Cincinnati leave here with a win.” The Bengals’ final call at quarterback is expected closer to kickoff, but preparing a Clifford-specific plan gives the staff added tactical leverage. With a result badly needed to build momentum, Cincinnati is banking on the element of surprise from a familiar face in Green Bay to swing the game’s pivotal moments.
