Philadelphia Eagles LB Shaun Bradley will be unavailable for the new season after tearing an Achilles in yesterday’s preseason opener vs. Baltimore Ravens.
#Eagles LB and special teams ace Shaun Bradley is out for the year with a torn Achilles, according to a league source.
The former Temple standout has become a core part of the Eagles special teams the last three seasons and was also in the mix for snaps at LB this training camp

Shaun took to social media to share the awful news that he won’t be able to play.
“Not how I wanted the campaign to end for me,” Bradley wrote. “But I believe that god truly gives his strongest soldiers his toughest battles.”
The problem came in the 3rd quarter of the 20-19 Eagles defeat, as the linebacker went to the ground while on punt coverage. All players on the field wished him the best before he was carted off the ground.
Bradley (26) has been a core special teams player for Philly, appearing in 2/3 of the special teams snaps in the past campaign. Shaun began 1 match in 3 campaigns at LB and has 45 career tackles.
