Brandon Graham has finally completed a goal, as the Eagles’ 2010 first-round pick just earned his first Pro Bowl birth.
Graham, the team’s longest-tenured player, and the 11-year veteran was joined on the NFC roster by defensive tackle Fletcher Cox and center Jason Kelce.
“This is that much more special to me because I know how much work was put in years before and even this year, knowing that my time is almost running out. It’s on me to go out and do it. We went out there and did it,” Graham said over the phone earlier this afternoon.
The 32-year-old Graham leads the Eagles with seven sacks and 14 tackles for loss in 2020.
For Cox, it’s his sixth consecutive Pro Bowl nomination, tying him for the second-longest Pro Bowl streak in franchise history, one behind Pro Football Hall of Famer Reggie White.
Cox’s six overall nominations are tied for fifth among all players in Eagles history.
Kelce has the most Pro Bowl selections by a center in Eagles franchise history with four.
