Super Bowl injury report: Eagles’ Brandon Graham questionable

Philadelphia Eagles defensive end Brandon Graham is questionable and Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Skyy Moore is doubtful for Super Bowl LIX, according to the final injury report for the game released Friday.

Graham (elbow) was a limited participant in practice Wednesday and Thursday before practicing in full on Friday.

Graham, 36, hinted earlier in the week that he is considering retirement after the Super Bowl.

“I don’t know what the future holds,” he said, “but if this is my last game, I’m going to give it everything I have.”

Graham, a team captain in his 15th season with the Eagles, was placed on injured reserve on Nov. 26 after tearing a triceps muscle in a Week 12 win against the Los Angeles Rams.

Graham is the Eagles’ all-time leader with 206 games played and ranks third in franchise history with 76.5 sacks. He tallied 3.5 sacks, seven quarterback hits and 20 tackles in 11 games (one start) this season. He was one of the heroes of Philadelphia’s 41-33 win against the New England Patriots in Super Bowl LII, recording a strip-sack of Tom Brady late in the fourth quarter to help clinch the franchise’s first Lombardi Trophy.

The Eagles also listed tight end C.J. Uzomah (abdomen) and reserve offensive lineman Nick Gates (groin) as questionable. Philadelphia ruled out receiver/return specialist Britain Covey (neck), who remains on injured reserve.

No other Eagles player carries a game designation into the weekend. Receiver DeVonta Smith (hamstring) was limited Wednesday through Friday but will play.

As for Kansas City, Moore hasn’t played since Week 7 and was placed on IR in October with a core muscle injury. He practiced in a limited capacity each day this week but is now deemed doubtful to play.

Moore is in his third NFL season, all with Kansas City, and did not record a reception in 2024 before his injury. He has 43 career receptions for 494 yards and one touchdown, plus a 4-yard touchdown catch against the Eagles in Super Bowl LVII.

He’s the only Chiefs player with any designation. Star quarterback Patrick Mahomes, who suffered a high ankle sprain Dec. 15 vs. Cleveland, was a full participant all week. Right tackle Jawaan Taylor (knee) and punter Matt Araiza (illness) are also good to go.
