Nigel Bradham, linebacker

Eagles linebacker Nigel Bradham owns a Glock 40 and multiple other firearms for hunting and home protection for his girlfriend and his son.

“So, you’re kind of a target to some people,” Bradham told Philly.com. “We can’t act like we’re not. That’s one of my reasons. I have a nice car, nice clothes.”

The Blaze reported: “Linebacker Nigel Bradham was arrested a month ago after his Glock 40 showed up on a Miami airport X-ray machine — cops determined it was accidentally left in his carry-on bag.”

Josh Huff, wide receiver

Wide receiver Josh Huff was recently let go from the Eagles after a run-in with New Jersey law enforcement over a state weapons violation. He has since signed with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

According to The Blaze, “Just days after NFL player Josh Huff got pulled over for speeding in New Jersey, fessed up he had a gun registered in Texas in his car and then found himself facing charges of unlawful possession of a weapon, the Philadelphia Eagles released the wide receiver.”

Surprised, Huff said:

“I’m a professional athlete. What professional athlete don’t have a gun? I have a wife, and I have a son at home, and my job is to protect them at all costs. My job is to protect myself as well.”

Apparently, Eagles coach Doug Pederson though a gun owner himself (hunting rifles), isn’t fond of his players’ rights to do the same. Just before he let Huff go, Pederson said he doesn’t “necessarily understand why they need guns outside of maybe sport hunting or whatever.” He promised to “just continue to educate our players and try to curb it the best we can.” In fact, Pederson makes his team sit through a mandatory gun rules class, and players know right from the get-go that their constitutional rights aren’t a top priority in Philadelphia.

With resistance like this faced on a daily basis as far up as our federal government, it’s imperative all gun owners and respecters of the Second Amendment stand together.
