Philadelphia Eagles' defensive coordinator Vic Fangio is grappling with the impact of veteran defensive end Brandon Graham's season-ending injury. Graham, in his 15th season, was performing exceptionally well before tearing his triceps in a recent game against the Los Angeles Rams.
Fangio indicated that the team will adopt a committee approach to fill Graham's void, emphasizing the challenge of replacing a player of his caliber. New signing Charles Harris and returning player Tarron Jackson are among those considered for the role, while rookie Jalyx Hunt is also in the mix as he recovers from an ankle injury.
Fangio expressed hope that Graham might reconsider retirement, given the circumstances, and mentioned that Nolan Smith is likely to see an increase in playing time moving forward. The Eagles are preparing for a crucial matchup against the Baltimore Ravens.
