Eagles Bring Back Former All-Pro Retired This Summer For A Workout

Philadelphia, PA — September 24, 2025 — The Philadelphia Eagles have turned back the clock, bringing in a familiar face for a surprising workout: defensive end Brandon Graham, who officially retired earlier this summer.

Multiple reports confirmed the move on Tuesday. One post quickly gained traction among fans, noting: “The Eagles hosted DE Brandon Graham for a workout. Graham retired this summer, but seems he may have made an exception here.” The post drew hundreds of reactions.

The news comes at a pivotal moment for Philadelphia. With edge/defensive-line depth under scrutiny and several injuries testing Nick Sirianni’s roster — including Nolan Smith Jr. being placed on injured reserve — Graham’s return, even in a workout capacity, could provide a timely boost. The 15-year Eagle is revered for his tone-setting leadership and big-game production. 

A local sports roundup added context: Tampa Bay is expected to be without Mike Evans (hamstring), adding intrigue to the matchup — though indications are that a deal with Graham is “not yet imminent.” 

Graham’s sudden reappearance raises eyebrows. At 6’2”, 265 pounds, he had been a one-franchise cornerstone before calling it quits this offseason. Now, with the Eagles preparing for a critical Week 4 road trip to face the Buccaneers at Raymond James Stadium, the timing suggests urgency.

Whether this workout leads to a contract remains unclear, but one thing is certain: Philadelphia is keeping all options on the table to stabilize its pass-rush rotation.

Steelers Linked To Saints SuperStar With 5x Pro Bowl & 2x All-Pro in Blockbuster Trade
Pittsburgh, PA — According to a  circulating on X (Twitter), the Pittsburgh Steelers have been “linked” to Alvin Kamara—the New Orleans Saints superstar, five-time Pro Bowler and two-time All-Pro—as a potential target ahead of the trade deadline. The speculation has heated up as various outlets have also floated Kamara as a logical “fit” should the Steelers look to add a versatile, late-season playmaker on offense. At 30, Kamara is a rare dual-threat RB who excels as both a runner and receiver. He tied the NFL single-game record with six rushing touchdowns (Christmas Day 2020 vs. the Vikings), and he has recently been recognized as the Saints’ all-time leader in rushing yards. Across his career: 5× Pro Bowl, 2× Second-Team All-Pro, and a skill set that meshes with Pittsburgh’s motion/spacing concepts—screens, angle/choice routes, safe check-downs, and short play-action. Tactically, if a move ever materialized, Kamara would immediately put stress on short-to-intermediate coverages, force defenses to roll a safety, and give Pittsburgh intriguing two-back looks alongside Najee Harris on 3rd-and-medium and in the red zone. In this hypothetical scenario, Kamara voices a desire for a fresh challenge after hitting so many personal milestones in New Orleans: “I’ve achieved just about everything with the Saints, and I want a new challenge for myself. What could be better than a team competing directly for a Super Bowl? Just thinking about wearing Black and Gold really excites me.” As of now, there has been no official confirmation from the Steelers or the Saints regarding any talks. Still, Kamara’s résumé and toolbox explain why his name is quickly paired with Pittsburgh whenever rumors of an offensive upgrade surface. With 5× Pro Bowls, 2× All-Pro honors, and a proven knack for tilting games as both a runner and receiver, even a whisper on social media is enough to make Steelers Nation perk up.
