James Bradberry, an NFL player with the Philadelphia Eagles, understands what it’s like to play in front of the league’s most passionate fan base.
The Philadelphia Eagles cornerback used social media on Friday to display the kinds of offensive texts (NSFW) that fans have been sending him. One message came from an obviously irate supporter who wanted him to leave Philadelphia due to his performance.
After two hours, the same fan fell in love with him once more. Bradberry has 35 tackles and one interception on the season.

The Eagles defense just finished a game in which they gave up 34 points to the Buffalo Bills, but they have Jalen Hurts, who managed to overcome them at Lincoln Financial Field in overtime.
With an interception, Hurts completed 18 of 31 passes for 200 yards in a game between two of the NFL’s most explosive quarterbacks. In addition, he gained 65 yards on 14 rushes. The front-runner for MVP inspired his group, just as he had in Kansas City one week prior.
The Eagles, who are 10-1, are still finding ways to win, but they cannot afford to sit back because the Dallas Cowboys, who are 9-3, are closing in.
