Longtime Philadelphia Eagles defensive end Brandon Graham announced Tuesday that he is retiring from the NFL, again.
“I’m officially done,” Graham said during a “Breakfast with the Birds” pep rally at Thomas Jefferson University Hospital. “Y’all are hearing it from me first.”
Graham, the longest-tenured player in franchise history, announced he was walking away following Philadelphia’s 2024 Super Bowl campaign.
But then he signed a one-year deal with the Eagles last October to play in his 16th NFL season following the sudden retirement of Za’Darius Smith, recording three sacks and three QB hits in nine games.
