Due to its aggressive nature, Braman was undergoing CAR T-cell therapy treatment in Seattle. A GoFundMe campaign was also set up for his treatment, which managed to raise $88,429, including a $10,000 donation by former teammate J.J. Watt.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p><p>Braman did reportedly show signs of improvement during his treatment as his cells infused themselves and started to reproduce within the bone marrow, but that was only short lived.&nbsp;<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Former NFL linebacker Bryan Braman, who played 97 games with the Texans and Eagles, has passed away at 38 years old after battling a rare, aggressive form of cancer. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/rNk1WyWyp9\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>pic.twitter.com\/rNk1WyWyp9<\/a><\/p>&mdash; TSN (@TSN_Sports) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/TSN_Sports\/status\/1945813395644596529?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>July 17, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Bryan Braman NFL Legacy<\/h2><p>With respect to the late linebacker&rsquo;s career in the NFL, Braman was an undrafted free agent from the 2011 NFL draft. He signed with the Texans after the draft.&nbsp;<\/p><p>He became a fan favorite, mostly due to his play on special teams, where he blocked many punts while playing for Houston. He is perhaps most well remembered for a special teams play during his rookie year when he tackled the Tennessee Titans&rsquo; punt returner head-on without a helmet.&nbsp;<\/p><p>From 2014, Braman continued his career with the Philadelphia Eagles and where he went on to win Super Bowl LII in 2017 over the New England Patriots.

Although there is no known information about a spouse, Braman was a father to two daughters, Blakely, age 11, and Marlowe, age 8. They were reported to be by his side throughout his illness.&nbsp;<\/p><p>The passing away of Braman at such an early age is surely a huge loss for the NFL community.
