Braman’s agent, Sean Stellato, told KPRC 2 That the 38-year-old former NFL player “is in the fight in his life,” but was hopeful that he would beat cancer.
“At Stellato Sports, Bryan Braman has always stood for strength, resilience and leadership,” Stellato said. “He is a pillar and a staple in the sub -dog.
