Daily News | Eagles’ Shaun Bradley uses My Cause My Cleats to show support in memory of shooting victim 14-year-old Nicolas Elizalde
Shaun Bradley uses his cleats to show support for the memory of 14-year-old Nicolas Elizalde, who was fatally shot outside of Roxborough High School after a football scrimmage on Sept. 28.When Eagles’ Shaun Bradley heard about the shooting at Roxborough High School, he remembered a former Temple football teammate he had that went there. Bradley’s initial thought was, “A couple years earlier, that could have been the person I knew.
. It’s become a cruel reality that Philly residents have endured, with many dealing with the trauma of losing a neighbor, a friend or even family member. Bradley, Reddick, A.J. Brown, and Jake Elliott are among those that will be wearing cleats in honor of the anti gun violence cause, supporting the Everytown for Gun Safety organization.
“It was very surreal to talk with someone that was that connected,” Zambrano said. “When you can put that together and it really motivates you to kind of push the limits of what you’re gonna do on the shoe and really deliver, so my partner Mohammed actually did that specific pair, and I think he did a great job.”
He went through a mix of emotions. It started with grief then frustration, Bradley said, because he didn’t know how to deal with it. It wasn’t until he confided in his dad and former Temple coach Fran Brown about how he was feeling that he started to cope with those emotions. He found football as a coping mechanism. So when he learned that other football players had their sacred grounds disrupted by gun violence, Bradley knew he needed to speak up.
