Philadelphia Eagles' star defensive end Brandon Graham will no longer be suiting up in Midnight Green, but that doesn't mean he has a ton of confidence in his former teammates.
“I really do feel like they're going back again,” Graham said of an Eagles' back-to-back Super Bowl appearance while guest starring on an episode of Gallen of Questions.
Graham, who hung up his cleats after 15 NFL seasons and two Super Bowl rings, knows what a rock-solid team looks like by now.
And thinks the Eagles still have one, despite their locker room drama and free agency losses.
"We got to address things that pop up in the season," Graham said. "That happened this year, and we addressed it and we moved on. And we stayed focused on what the goal was, but you got to make sure they have the leaders in that room, which I know they do. Why it can't be them to do it again? That's how I feel."
Graham emphasized head coach Nick Sirianni's powerful message he shared with the team earlier this offseason as they look to sustain success.
"I already love how coach [Nick] Sirianni is talking about perfume, where it smells great, but don't drink it, it's poison. And winning? We won the Super Bowl, it's great. But to think that you're going to do it again without working like you did, that's a poisonous mindset," Graham added. "I love where he went with it, and I think they'll do good with that message."
The Eagles will stick to their core message -- no chasing, just building -- as they gear up for another Super Bowl run. That mindset will be front and center when they hit the field for the first time in pads this offseason as training camp opens on Tuesday, July 22.
