New Orleans (AFP) – Philadelphia Eagles defensive end Brandon Graham is fighting to face the Kansas City Chiefs in Sunday’s Super Bowl despite being out injured since November. The 36-year-old, who was drafted by the Eagles in 2010, tore his triceps in a week 12 victory over the Los Angeles Rams.
While it was initially believed that Graham — who was placed on injured reserve and underwent surgery — would be out for the season, he has continued to work with hope of being able to feature in the Super Bowl. Graham was listed as a “full participant” in Friday’s practice, with his involvement in Sunday’s game rated as “questionable.”

Graham, who won the Super Bowl with the Eagles in 2017, had indicated that this would be his final season in the NFL but has yet to fully confirm his retirement. Another injury concern for the Eagles is wide receiver DeVonta Smith, who was listed as “limited” in each of the three practices this week.
