Recently Retired Eagles Star Teases NFL Career Might Not Be Over Yet
The Philadelphia Eagles have barely had much of a chance to soak in their Super Bowl 59 victory as the NFL offseason rapidly continues. The start of free agency cut the Eagles’ celebrations short at the beginning of March, and the team’s situation has only become busier since then now that the 2025 NFL draft is only two weeks away.
The Eagles’ offseason experience also featured a retirement, as long-time fan-favorite pass rusher Brandon Graham retired after playing 15 seasons in Philadelphia. The 37-year-old defender had been contemplating retirement for some team, and winning his second Super Bowl title was the perfect way to cap off his career.
At least, that’s assuming the former Michigan Wolverine stays retired.
Eagles News: Brandon Graham Hints His NFL Retirement Might Not Last
Graham was a guest on Wednesday’s edition of FanDuel TV’s “Up & Adams” show. During the interview, host Kay Adams asked Graham about his retirement, only for the ex-Eagles star to hint that he could return to the gridiron if head coach Nick Sirianni needs him next season.
“I’m 90 percent retired,” Graham told Adams. “The 10 (percent) is how much I want to continue to train the way I’m training… I just want to go out there and speed it up to where I want to look good but make sure that I’m staying fit.”
