WATCH: Brandon Graham followed in David Akers footsteps by taking a shot at the Dallas Cowboys during NFL Draft pick announcement
Brandon Graham was tasked with announcing a Philadelphia Eagles draft pick in Detroit over the weekend and wasted no time in trolling the Dallas Cowboys.
After yelling “Go Blue” as an ode to being from Detroit and playing college ball at Michigan and the getting everyone hyped with a mandatory “E-A-G-L-E-S” chant, Graham shifted focus to the Dallas Cowboys.
Brandon Graham: “…Dallas sucks! All day! Let’s go!”
Brandon Graham joined kicker David Akers as two Philadelphia Eagles who took shots at the Dallas Cowboys before announcing their picks at the NFL Draft.
David Akers trolled Dallas fans in Arlington six years ago, one year after Cowboys Hall of Fame wide receiver Drew Pearson did the same to Eagles fans when the event was held in Philly.
David Akers: “Hey, Dallas! The last time you were in the Super Bowl, these draft picks weren’t born!”
Shortly after the Eagles miserable end to the 2023-24 season, it was announced that Brandon Graham would be signing a 1-year contract to remain in Philadelphia for one more season.
Initially selected in the 2010 NFL draft, Graham is now the longest-tenured player on the team and has put together quite the resume with 73 career sacks, 146 quarterback hits, and 21 forced fumbles — no fumble larger than the strip sack against Tom Brady, which propelled the Eagles to their first Super Bowl victory in franchise history.
BG has consistently been among the NFL’s best pass rushers. Graham recorded a career-best 11 sacks in 2022 and has reached a minimum of eight sacks in four different seasons. It’s worth noting that Graham appeared in all 17 of the Eagles games this past season.
Graham made it clear that he wanted to play his final season with the Eagles and thankfully, the two sides got it done with an appropriate ‘farewell tour’ in 2024.
