Will Brandon Graham Play In The Super Bowl? Philadelphia Eagles Legend Speaks Out After Two-Month Injury Layoff

The question of will Brandon Graham play in Super Bowl 2025 is on the minds of all Philadelphia Eagles fans after they punched their ticket with an impressive 55-23 victory over the Washington Commanders.
In less than two weeks the Eagles will meet the Kansas City Chiefs at Super Bowl LIX in a rematch from 2023.
Graham has been out since November 24 when he tore his triceps against the Los Angeles Rams in Week 12.
At the time, the defensive end described it as a season-ending injury. It came after he previously insisted that his 15th season with the Eagles would be his last in the NFL.
“If I had to go out like this, I gave everything I got,” the 36-year-old told Ashlyn Phillips of NBC Philly after the game with the Rams.
However, in recent weeks there have been rumours that Graham could attempt a return if the Eagles reached the Super Bowl.
Now the Eagles have made the showpiece game, there would be no better way for Graham to end his career than Super Bowl win over the Chiefs.

“At the end of the day I’m just happy we got there. Them boys scored 55 today. That’s what’s up. That might be telling me something.”
Regarding any talks with the organization over playing at the Super Bowl, Graham added: “We didn’t really discuss all the (factors) everybody has been so hyped. So we’re just going to see what they’re saying and I’m with it regardless – yes or no it don’t matter.
“I’m just happy these guys are just working their butt off and now we got to the Super Bowl. Now we gotta go finish.”
Graham Planning To Retire At End Of The Season
Playing in the Super Bowl would be a fitting way for Brandon Graham to finish his NFL career.
The 36-year-old announced he would retire at the end of the season back in July 2024.
Graham was selected 13th overall by the Eagles in the 2010 NFL draft out of the University of Michigan. The 6-foot-2, 265-pound edge rusher has spent his entire career with the organization.
The biggest play of his NFL career occurred in Super Bowl LII against the New England Patriots. During the fourth quarter with 2:21 remaining, he strip-sacked Tom Brady, forcing a fumble recovered by teammate Derek Barnett. The Eagles went on to win their first and only championship with a final score of 41-33.
Before his injury against the Los Angeles Rams, Graham had been playing well across the opening 11 games of the season.
