Brandon Graham speaks on his future in Philadelphia ahead of Super Bowl LVII
Brandon Graham appeared on the Zach Gelb show on CBS Sports Radio and discussed his future NFL plans after the Philadelphia Eagles take on the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl LVII.
Graham, who turned 34 back in April, is coming off the best season of his 13-year career with the Philadelphia Eagles logging a career-high 11 sacks during the regular season to go along with 35 tackles, 11 TFLs, and 16 QB hits. The depth of the Eagles’ D-Line really benefited BG this season, and even with a decrease in snaps, Graham has seen a massive increase in production.
Of course, the topic of retirement came up while talking to Gelb, in which Graham responded that he hopes to play a few more years before hanging up the cleats.
Brandon Graham: “I want to play a couple more years”
“My wife has said it could potentially be my last year AS AN EAGLE because of my 1-year deal. But I wanna play a couple more years. I hope everything works out, but I’m definitely playing.”
Brandon Graham will be a free agent after this season, along with Miles Sanders, CJ Gardner-Johnson, Fletcher Cox, and more key Eagles that played pivotal part in this year’s Super Bowl run.
Graham is on the last year of a 3-year, $40M contract and could be in for a one last veteran pay-day from a variety of teams around the NFL. BG is a Philadelphia legend and has never been about himself. Howie Roseman is also known for his wizardry when it comes to contracts and restructuring, so if BG wanted to return on a friendly hometown deal to finish his career off in Philadelphia, Roseman and the Eagles should jump all over it.
