The Philadelphia Eagles might reunite with their former edge rusher Brandon Graham. Their pass rush looks thin, recording only nine sacks this season as a result of injuries and departures. However, not all fans are on board with the idea.
“He’s 37. Stay home, bro,” said a fan on X.
Hes 37 stay home bro

Eagles Eye Brandon Graham Comeback as Pass Rush Struggles Hit Crisis Point
Philadelphia Eagles, Brandon Graham
Eagles’ Brandon Graham (55) takes to the practice field during training camp Thursday at the NovaCare Complex.
Philadelphia’s edge-rusher unit is bare. With Za’Darius Smith retiring and younger players like Nolan Smith entangled on injured reserve, the Eagles are facing a big issue. Many reports reveal that the Eagles stand near the bottom of the league in sacks, with just nine through six games.
If Brandon Graham could return. It could be a glimmer of hope in the gloom. He ranks third in team history with 76.5 sacks. On top of that, his much-needed presence could stabilize a locker room navigating internal turbulence and add enlightenment where it’s needed.
Graham’s return could shift more than just stats. His stunning three-technique ability, control of his gap, and mentoring of younger players offer immediate upside. The playoffs remain a target, and with the team at its peak, this move might be less about nostalgia and more about necessity.
As the talks became more intense, many fans showed mixed reactions:
One fan said, “This is such a bad idea.” He left on top. Stay on top. Why ruin your fairytale ending of a career.”
Otherstated, “Hahaha 3.5 sacks HUGGGEEEE BOOST”
Otherschimed, “just stay retired bro 😭.”
More fansreacted, “The Za’Darius Smith replacement.”
Another onestated, “He saw the giants beat the eagles and said enough. Lol he really hates us huh.”
If the Eagles plug Graham into the rotation, they’re signaling one thing: they won’t sit quietly while their edge rush vanishes into thin air.
