Philadelphia Eagles veteran defensive end Brandon Graham announced that he will miss the remainder of the season after tearing his left triceps during the team's 37-20 victory over the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday night. The 36-year-old, who has spent all 15 seasons of his NFL career with the Eagles, suffered the injury in the fourth quarter and was ruled out shortly after leaving the field. Graham, who moved up to third all-time in sacks in Eagles history during the game, delivered a standout performance with multiple quarterback hits, six pressures, a sack, three tackles for loss, and one pass deflection before his injury. He was emotional in the locker room, stating, 'If I had to go out like this, I gave everything I got.' Head coach Nick Sirianni acknowledged the situation but said he was not ready to discuss it, adding that the team is holding out hope. Graham was presented with a game ball after the victory. It remains uncertain whether he will return next season, as he had been considering retirement, potentially making this injury career-ending.
