News of the move was first reported by Peter Schrager of NFL Network from the NFL Scouting Combine in Indianapolis and confirmed by the Eagles just moments later. Graham, 30, is the longest-tenured member of the Philadelphia defense.
The Eagles made Graham, who played college football at Michigan, the No. 13 overall selection in 2010. He registered 39 combined tackles, four sacks, two passes defensed, and a forced fumble through 16 starts with the Eagles in 2018. Graham has recorded 317 combined tackles, 42.5 sacks, seven passes defensed, and 17 forced fumbles through his nine NFL seasons.
Graham's most impressive season came in 2017 when he racked up a career-high 9.5 sacks, 47 combined tackles, and two forced fumbles. He has missed just one game (Week 17 in 2017) since the 2012 season.
H/t to Patrick Tulini for the find.
