Just seven days into training camp, the Eagles have already lost two players to a torn ACL.

Now, fans are trying to reach to a higher power to make sure there isn't a third.

A petition has been started on Change.org by Eagles fans in a hope to have Pope Francis bless the often-injured knee of quarterback Sam Bradford during his upcoming trip to Philadelphia in September.

The petition, which has over 600 signatures, reads:
The Pope is coming to Philly! Our city! With this Eagles season coming up, a lot of our Super Bowl hopes rely on Sam Bradford's knees staying healthy. So, with one of the most religious representatives in the world visiting our wonderful place we call home, how about we get him to bless Bradford's knees during his visit to Philly! This town deserves a Super Bowl, and a healthy Bradford is the only way we will have a parade down Broad Street! Please sign this petition and Go Eagles and Welcome to Philly, Pope Francis!!!!
