Brandon Graham Plans Return to Eagles After Retirement

Brandon Graham, the Philadelphia Eagles' legendary edge rusher and two-time Super Bowl champion, is reportedly coming out of retirement to rejoin the team for his 16th NFL season. After retiring following the Eagles' Super Bowl LIX victory, Graham has been working out and is expected to fill gaps left by recent departures and injuries in the Eagles' pass rush. Despite his age and past injuries, Graham's leadership and familiarity with the team are seen as valuable assets, though Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts expressed skepticism about the impact of Graham's return on the team's overall pass rush effectiveness. Jason Kelce has publicly encouraged Graham to unretire, highlighting the veteran's desire to remain involved with the organization. Graham's return is anticipated to boost team morale and provide experience, but questions remain about his ability to replicate his past production. The Eagles hope his comeback will help address their defensive needs as they continue their 2025 season.
