James Bradberry showed up at the Eagles three-day minicamp and will be cross-trained at safety despite playing cornerback in the first eight years of his NFL career.
PHILADELPHIA – James Bradberry is at the Eagles' veteran minicamp this week. Even though it is mandatory, it is somewhat surprising the veteran cornerback is in attendance.
“James has always been a team guy since the moment he stepped in here and from what I understand everywhere else he’s been because we did our research before we brought James in here in 2022,” said Sirianni. “He’d do anything for his teammates, he’d do anything for his team.” The perception was they would cut him, but June 1 came and went, and he wasn’t released. The thinking then shifted to a potential trade, and maybe that will still happen, but now there seems to be a path for Bradberry to stick on the 53-man roster.
“He was able to do a couple different things last year and played the majority of his career at corner then was able to do some things at the dime, some things at the nickel, some things at the corner, and now he’s working some of the safety stuff, which you’ll see ,” said the head coach.
