The Philadelphia Eagles Gift All-Inclusive Tickets to Teen Cancer Survivor’s Family Ahead of Sunday’s Game vs. Rams

Saturday, September 20, 2025

CAMDEN, N.J. — Jaden Mohan, a 15-year-old devoted Eagles fan from Egg Harbor Township, New Jersey, arrived at Cooper University Hospital’s Cancer Center expecting a routine check-up. Instead, the teen, who recently triumphed over bone cancer, was met with a heartwarming surprise from the Philadelphia Eagles: an all-inclusive experience featuring four tickets to watch the Eagles take on the Los Angeles Rams this Sunday, complete with transportation, meals, accommodations, and premium seating at the stadium.

This extraordinary gift, organized by the Philadelphia Eagles in honor of Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, celebrates Jaden’s remarkable milestone of completing bone cancer treatment six months ago. Diagnosed in June of last year, Jaden endured arm surgery, chemotherapy, and blood transfusions throughout his challenging battle with the disease.

“I was completely shocked and feel so lucky to get to see the Eagles game with this amazing experience,” Jaden shared.

The tickets and full experience were presented by a representative of the Philadelphia Eagles, who offered words of encouragement: “Keep fighting strong and cheer loud for the Eagles!”

Jaden’s father, Shiv Mohan, opened up about the family’s arduous journey. “It’s been a long road, and we prayed every day for our son’s recovery and return to a normal life. So far, things are looking very positive,” he said.

Currently in the rehabilitation phase with regular check-ups, Jaden reflected on the isolation of his treatment. “It was really tough. I had to stay in the hospital all the time, and it was so boring,” he said, adding, “but watching the Eagles fight every weekend gave me strength.”

Die-hard Philadelphia Eagles fans, Jaden and his family never miss a Sunday game, gathering around the TV to cheer passionately for their beloved team. This Sunday’s game will mark the first time Jaden, his two siblings, and his father attend an Eagles game in person, with prime seats arranged for an unforgettable view. The Eagles are covering all expenses for transportation, meals, and accommodations, ensuring a memorable day for the Mohan family. Shiv offered advice to other families: “Don’t ignore anything. A small pain, like in the shoulder, could be a serious sign. Always stay vigilant.”

When asked what he’s most excited about, Jaden didn’t hesitate: “I want the Eagles to win. Go Birds!”

With recent tests showing no signs of cancer, the Mohan family has even more reason to celebrate during this special game day experience. The Philadelphia Eagles’ meaningful gesture not only brings joy and hope to Jaden but also underscores the team’s commitment to supporting the community. By providing this all-inclusive experience, the Eagles honor the resilience of young warriors like Jaden, spreading a message of positivity and solidifying their role as a symbol of unity and inspiration for fans everywhere.

Steelers Add Two Former Packers Fan Favorites to Practice Squad To Strengthen Defense Ahead Of Browns Game
  PITTSBURGH – On Wednesday, October 8, 2025, the Pittsburgh Steelers welcomed two linebackers formerly with the Green Bay Packers for a workout session. The players invited were Michael Barrett and Isaiah Simmons, as the team looks to bolster its defensive unit ahead of upcoming games. Isaiah Simmons, selected as the 8th overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft out of Clemson, has appeared in 84 games. He has recorded 329 tackles (226 solo, 103 assisted), 8.5 sacks (74 yards), 5 interceptions (127 yards), 2 interception touchdowns, 9 forced fumbles, and 3 fumble recoveries. Simmons, who briefly signed with the Packers in 2025 but didn’t make the final roster, is known for his versatility and impressive speed. Michael Barrett, a 7th-round pick (240th overall) by the Carolina Panthers in the 2024 NFL Draft out of Michigan, has limited NFL experience. He has appeared in a few games on practice squads with teams like the Packers and Browns but has yet to record significant stats (0 tackles, sacks, or interceptions). At Michigan, Barrett had a standout final college season with 65 tackles, 3 sacks, and 3 forced fumbles. Alex Highsmith, a key linebacker for the Steelers, suffered a high ankle sprain during the team’s Week 2 loss to the Seattle Seahawks on September 14, 2025. The injury sidelined him for Weeks 3 and 4, with an estimated recovery time of 4-6 weeks. While Highsmith was not placed on injured reserve to maintain roster flexibility, he is still recovering post-bye week and expected to return soon. However, the Steelers are seeking temporary replacements for the edge rusher position. The workouts with Barrett and Simmons reflect head coach Mike Tomlin’s cautious approach to adding depth to the defense, especially after releasing Ja’Whaun Bentley and losing Jon Rhattigan to the Raiders. Simmons, with his experience and athleticism, could be an ideal short-term option to support T.J. Watt and Nick Herbig. The Steelers have not yet announced any contract decisions regarding the two linebackers. SOURCE: https://x.com/FarabaughFB/status/1976031373946388722
