Brandon Graham – Philadelphia Eagles

For the first time since he entered the league back in 2010, Brandon Graham recorded double-digit sacks this past season. Even more impressive is the fact that the Philadelphia Eagles defensive end was coming off of a torn Achilles’ tendon that sidelined him for 15 contests in 2021.

Graham will be gunning for the second Super Bowl ring of his career when the Eagles meet the Chiefs next Sunday at Glendale’s State Farm Stadium. It could very well be the 34-year-old’s final game with Philly, thanks to a laundry list of free agents that Eagles general manager Howie Roseman will have to deal with this offseason.

Must Read. Wideout could seek extension from Cardinals. light

Much like the situation with Houston, the Cardinals could look to Graham to fill the squad’s pass-rushing void, while up and comers like Thomas and Sanders continue to blossom. The young defenders would also benefit from learning from an experienced individual who has 70 career sacks under his belt.
