Eagles News: Sam Bradford "Feels Better Than Expected"

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Bradford is just days away from making his preseason debut with the team, and he's hoping to shake the memory of tearing his ACL last time he took the field in the preseason with the Rams against the Browns.

“It seems like just yesterday I was in Cleveland and walking to the locker room,” Bradford said. “I thought this day would never come, but here we are a little over a week away from getting out there and playing some real football and I think that is always exciting.”

Even without playing in a game yet, Bradford has shown enough in training camp for the team to be optimistic about his health. He hasn’t been held back during Training Camp, and he says there haven't been any signs of any lingering issues.

“We talked about if from day one, that when I wasn’t taking reps in OTAs, the goal was to be ready by camp so that when it got here, I’d be able to go out there and not be limited, and that’s where we’ve been so far,” Bradford said. “For me, I need the reps, so to get out there getting those reps; it’s been great for me. “I feel better than what I was expecting. I thought my knee would hold up but I wasn’t sure since I hadn’t put it through four days of practice coming into camp. But the way my knee feels now, it feels great, so I’m really happy with where I am right now.”
