Philadelphia Eagles linebacker Nigel Bradham was arrested for the second time Sunday. It’s the second time he’s been arrested since joining the team.
This latest incident involved Bradham accidentally packing a gun in his backpack at the Miami airport. This type of behavior is starting to upset some in the Eagles’ organization.
Philadelphia defensive coordinator — and former Detroit Lions head coach — Jim Schwartz is one of those dismayed with Bradham for his off-the-field issues. In a recent interview, Schwartz had some blunt things to say about one of his defensive players.

Based on Schwartz’s comments, it seems like the Eagles’ defensive leader is upset with Bradham for doing stupid things, despite the fact that Schwartz believes Bradham is a good guy.
Bradham has had his fair share of issues in the NFL. He had marijuana charges dropped back in 2013 when he was with the Buffalo Bills. Earlier this summer, the Philadelphia linebacker was arrested for aggravated assault.
Overall, Schwartz pretty much nails it on the head. Everybody, including NFL players, should pretty much be accustomed to today’s travel laws. Though there are small changes, bringing firearms on a plane is never a good idea unless you are legally allowed to do so. And if you’re going to get in trouble a lot, be prepared to be looked down upon by those around you.
