Eagles re-sign Brandon Graham to three-year deal

Well, Brandon Graham isn’t going to hit free agency after all.

The soon-to-be unrestricted free agent is no more, as the defensive end agreed to a three-year extension.

Graham will forever be loved for his strip sack on Tom Brady in the Super Bowl, but he turns 31 in April. His contract would be worth $13 million per year.

It’s a feel-good story that Graham is remaining an Eagle. But there simply seems like there was never a market out there for him at the price the Eagles gave him – but he’s also a leader in the locker room. Sometimes, teams have to keep that leadership, and it’s clear the Eagles didn’t feel comfortable enough to let that go.

I can’t blame them.
