“Last first day as a player. I don’t know what the future holds with the organization,” Graham said. “It’s my last year, so just trying to soak it all in, trying to enjoy every day.”

Graham was sidelined for the year in week 12 after suffering a torn bicep versus the Los Angeles Rams.

“If I had to go out like this, I gave everything I got,” Graham told NBC Philly’s Ashlyn Sullivan.

The 36-year-old veteran worked his way back onto the field, playing 13 snaps in the 40-22 Super Bowl LIX victory over the Chiefs.

Graham’s body of work in Philadelphia is undeniable, as his performance on the field transformed him into a leader in the locker room.

During Graham’s tenure in Philadelphia he recorded, 76.5 sacks, which ranks third-highest among Eagles. No player Eagles history had more sacks from his seventh season on.

Jeffrey Lurie, Philadelphia Eagles Chairman And CEO, had some strong words about Graham.

“The positive energy he brought every day was infectious, whether it was a practice, a game, or just walking around the building. Anyone who has had the pleasure of interacting with him would tell you that it’s impossible to have a bad day after being in his presence.” Lurie said.

Graham’s most memorable moment as an Eagle, was the strip-sack in Super Bowl LII, helping the Eagles defeat the New England Patriots for their first Lombardi Trophy.

We wish Graham the best wishes in retirement!
