Philadelphia Eagles veteran Brandon Graham didn’t rule out a return to the team for Super Bowl LIX after suffering a season-ending injury.

Well, what was thought to be a season-ending torn triceps injury. Graham is expected to come off injured reserve according to The Philadelphia Inquirer’s Marcus Hayes and other reports.

If he indeed comes off, Graham could be back in action since suffering an injury against the Los Angeles Rams on November 24th.

“We gonna see,” Graham said as he was walking to the locker room.

This season, his 15th in the NFL out of Michigan, Graham had 20 total tackles, 3.5 sacks, one forced fumble and two pass deflections in a rotational role.

The highlight of Graham’s career came in Super Bowl LII, where he strip-sacked Tom Brady to help the Eagles clinch their first Lombardi in franchise history.

Brandon Graham teasing return for Super Bowl?

He was also a member of Philadelphia’s run to Super Bowl LVII two seasons ago, loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. If Graham does indeed return, he’ll get a shot at redemption after the Eagles’ 55-23 win over the Washington Commanders in the NFC Championship Sunday.

If he can go out on top, he’ll certainly be an automatic member of the Eagles’ Hall of Fame, if he wasn’t already. Graham is the longest-tenured player in the history of the franchise.

“You definitely want to leave this place better than when you came in,” Graham said in March after deciding to come back for the 2024 season. “I’m just going to be pouring into the guys, trying to get them to realize what they got in front of them, that these opportunities don’t come often when you got a good team, so let’s take full advantage of the moment.”

Graham and the Eagles will take on the Chiefs once again in Super Bowl LIX in New Orleans.
