The final weeks of NFL player Bryan Braman's life have been revealed following his tragic death earlier this week.
Braman, a former NFL defensive end and member of the Super Bowl LII-champion Philadelphia Eagles, died on July 17 at the age of 38 after being diagnosed with an aggressive form of cancer in February.
It has now been revealed that the former linebacker cherished his final moments with the people he loved the most - his daughters.
Braman's agent, Sean Stellato, revealed to People that his client's daughters, Blakely, 11, and Marlowe, eight, 'spent the last two weeks with him when he was dying.'
'He loved his two girls so, so much. They were everything, his legacy,' he said of the late NFL player.
Stellato, who described Braman as a 'true football brother,' hailed the strength of his character.

'I would say, a warrior in every sense, on the field and in life. He faced every battle with unshakable grit and heart,' said Stellato.
'And his passing really leaves a void, not only in the football community, but in the spirit of really every underdog who ever had to fight to play this game of football.'
An undrafted free agent out of West Texas A&M, Braman entered the league in 2011 with the Houston Texans .
He played three seasons there before spending the next four years with the Philadelphia Eagles. He also played at Idaho and Long Beach City College.
