Bowen: James Bradberry’s injury complicates Eagles’ safety dance

Eagles fans waiting with bated breath for the debut of James Bradberry at his new safety position learned that they will remain oxygen-deprived for six-to-eight weeks, after the team put Bradberry on injured reserve Thursday with what was reported in various outlets to be a leg injury involving a tendon.
Bradberry, 31, sustained the injury during Wednesday’s practice. He is not expected to require surgery.
