Brandon Graham on pace to top historic franchise mark with Eagles

The Philadelphia Eagles have some tough decisions to make this offseason regarding who stays and who goes from this past season’s NFC Championship squad. The Birds will have one familiar face back, inking veteran defensive end Brandon Graham to a one-year deal on Friday. 

Already a franchise legend, Graham will have the opportunity next season to cement his legacy in the Eagles’ record books. 

When Graham takes the field for the 2023-24 campaign, it will be the start of his 14th season in Philadelphia, tying Hall of Famer Chuck Bednarik for the most in Eagles’ history. And with Graham’s 178 games played in midnight green, he is only 11 contests shy of surpassing former Pro Bowl kicker David Akers (188) for the most games played all-time by an Eagle.
