Brandon Graham is part of the Philadelphia Eaglesā€˜ great history. The defensive lineman and player with the most games in franchise history in the NFL is considering his future after winning the Super Bowl. At the moment, Jalen Hurtsā€˜ teammate told what his chances are.

Graham has shown a successful recovery from a triceps injury and contributed to the Eaglesā€˜ big win over the Kansas City Chiefs in New Orleans. Although he is not under contract through 2025, he is exploring the possibility of retirement.
