He’s the longest tenured athlete in Philadelphia playing in his 15th season with the Birds.  Or at least he was playing until he tore the triceps in his left arm back in a week 12, 37-20 win over the Rams.

The Philadelphia Eagles opened the practice window for defensive end Brandon Graham on Thursday, per a team announcement. The move opens the door for him to potentially make a return to the lineup in the Super Bowl next Sunday.

Since tearing his triceps in Week 12, a potential return for Philadelphia Eagles defensive end Brandon Graham this season has been a longshot. The 36-year-old was a limited practice participant on Thursday. Speaking to the media from the locker room, Graham was upbeat and positive about his hope of returning to the field for Super Bowl LIX.
