Longtime Philadelphia Eagles pass rusher Brandon Graham is retiring, and this time he says it will stay that way.
At Tuesday’s “Breakfast With The Birds” event, Graham said he was “officially done” with his playing career. He added that he will still be around the organization, but his playing career is finished.
“I’m still around giving wisdom and helping the guys. It’s an adjustment for me, but it’s a great adjustment because it’s all about my kids and my family, trying to make sure I’m there for that,” Graham said.

Graham initially retired after the 2024 season in which the Eagles won a Super Bowl. However, he made a comeback midway through 2025, and collected three sacks in nine games for the team.
A former Pro Bowl selection, Graham was a part of two Eagles Super Bowl winners. Eagles fans will best remember him for his strip sack of Tom Brady during the fourth quarter of Super Bowl LII, which played a major role in wrapping up the game for Philadelphia.
For his career, Graham collected 79.5 sacks over the course of 16 seasons. The Eagles will remain the only organization he ever played for.
