In a stunning turn of events, Philadelphia Eagles veteran edge rusher Brandon Graham is attempting to make a miraculous return to the field for Super Bowl LVII. Graham, 36, suffered a torn triceps in Week 12 and was initially ruled out for the remainder of the season. 
However, in a recent interview, Graham revealed that he is taking his recovery “one day at a time” and is optimistic about his chances of returning for the big game. “I feel good,” Graham said. “This has been the easiest injury, I’d say, out of the injuries I’ve had. Upper body stuff is a little bit easier.”
Graham’s potential return would be a significant boost to the Eagles’ defense, which has been one of the top units in the NFL this season. Graham, a longtime team captain, has played his entire 15-year career with the Eagles and has been a key contributor to the team’s success.
Graham’s experience in big games would be invaluable, as he has played in two Super Bowls with the Eagles, including their victory in Super Bowl LII. His strip sack of Tom Brady in that game helped seal the win for the Eagles.
While Graham’s return is still uncertain, the Eagles could certainly use his expertise and leadership on the field. The team is facing the possibility of losing multiple edge rushers in the offseason, including Graham and Josh Sweat, who is set to become a free agent.
Sweat, who has been one of the Eagles’ top pass rushers this season, is expected to command a significant contract in free agency. With the Eagles facing salary cap constraints, it’s unclear whether they will be able to retain Sweat’s services.
Regardless of the outcome, Graham’s attempt to return for the Super Bowl is a testament to his dedication and perseverance. If he is able to suit up for the big game, it would be a remarkable achievement for the veteran edge rusher.
