After his finest game of the season, Eagles pass rusher Brandon Graham revealed that he suffered a torn left triceps that will sideline him the rest of the season:

It dampens the mood after a 37-20 win over the Los Angeles Rams in which Graham recorded three quarterback hits, two tackles for a loss and a sack. Saquon Barkley was the star of the show, setting a new single-game franchise record with 255 rushing yards. But Graham was probably the second most impressive player for the Eagles in their seventh straight win.

Graham is the longest-tenured Eagle, having been drafted in the first round of the 2010 NFL Draft. The 36-year-old had previously said he planned to retire after the 2024 season, his 15th NFL campaign. We'll see if this — mixed with the fact that he was still playing pretty well — changes his plans at all.
