The Philadelphia Eagles have officially welcomed Brandon Graham back to the team for the Super Bowl against the Kansas City Chiefs. The 36-year-old defensive end has overcome torn triceps, an injury sustained in Week 12 of the regular season that Graham feared at the time would not only end his season, but also his career. But a little over an hour before the Super Bowl begins in New Orleans, the Eagles confirmed that he was back and activated off injured reserve in a huge boost.
Graham sounded confident about his chances of returning for the Super Bowl when he spoke to media in the week building up to the game. But he stopped short of saying that he would definitely be back on the field. 'I feel good. This has been the easiest injury, I'd say, out of the injuries I've had. Upper body stuff is a little bit easier,' Graham said. 'It's just making sure I'm building muscle, I'm getting stronger and doing the right things to where I'm not re-hurting it. We'll see what the docs say, see what's going on, and go from there.'.
