How Eagles' Brandon Graham overcame pair of injuries in Super Bowl to sack Tom Brady

Brandon Graham’s strip-sack of Tom Brady with two minutes-and-change left in Super Bowl LII pretty much guaranteed that he never will have to pay for a drink in this city for the rest of his life.

After listening to the Eagles defensive end describe the adversity he overcame to power past Patriots right guard Shaq Mason and punch the ball out of Brady’s right hand to help preserve their historic 41-33 victory, you might want to throw in a lifetime supply of lobster tails and New York strip steaks as well.

Graham played the entire postseason with a “significant’’ right high ankle sprain suffered against the Oakland Raiders on Christmas night, which eventually needed surgery to repair last month.
