The Philadelphia Eagles released defensive lineman Brandon Graham and re-signed linebacker Chandler Martin on June 3, 2026. Graham's release is a procedural move to manage salary cap implications, possibly allowing him to return to the team later. He contributed three sacks last season after returning from retirement.
