Philadelphia – Brandon Graham did not make a decision about his future on Friday after all. At the end of the parade of the Lix championship of the Super Bowl of Philadelphia Eagles, Graham had a thunderous roar of more than one million fans in the steps of the Art Museum, but not for any decision about his future.
“I am very grateful for my children, my family. Very grateful to be part of this organization. You did what I am today,” said Graham. “The only problem I have with this season is that it ended. We prepare for next year.”
How did Graham end the parade? With these words to turn on the fan base and fireworks to sound.
“We of Philadelphia, Philadelphia,” said Graham. “We liked anyone, we don’t care!”
Graham is possibly responsible for the best play in the history of the Eagles franchise when he threw Tom Brady in the fourth quarter of his Super Bowl Lii victory over the New England Patriots. He has played in most games in the history of Eagles (206) and is the only player who plays 15 seasons for the franchise, all in a row. Graham also has the third most bags in the history of the team (76.5), only behind Reggie White (124.0) and Trent Cole (85.5).
Graham returned from an injury to play at the Super Bowl Lix and recorded a Tackle in 13 Snaps. The previous nine games was lost with a tice of triceps muscle. Graham, Lane Johnson, Rick Lovato and Jake Elliott are the only three players to win two Super Bowls with the franchise.
The leader of the franchise in postseason catches (5.5), Graham remained a key piece of the equipment rotation before their injury, with 3.5 captures and seven quits of quarterback in 11 games. What will Graham then do? He made fun of his future plans after the victory of the Super Bowl Lix.
“Let me tell you: I want to learn everything I can. If you want to enter a intern, I want to learn under Howie [Roseman, Eagles general manager]”Graham said after the super bowl’s victory.” We have something special. We have the secret sauce.
“I want to be part of every little thing. That’s why, even if I finished [playing]I have not finished with this organization. I will be here in some way, somehow. I’m going to find out where my place is. “
Graham will make the decision to return for a 16th season when it is the right time. For now, you are just enjoying the moment.
