James Bradberry injury: Eagles veteran expected to be out for 6-8 weeks

Just two days after the Eagles used one of their 53-man roster spots on veteran cornerback-turned-safety James Bradberry, he suffered a leg injury at practice and is excepted to miss 6-8 weeks. Fortunately for him, the veteran’s injury doesn’t require surgery, but it is severe enough to miss nearly half the season.

Although surgery is not required, the injury involves a tendon and recovery time for an injury of this nature is approximately 6-8 weeks.
