. . COMEBACK POY: BRANDON BROOKS. . player. 54.

Brandon Graham isn’t just the Eagles’ Comeback Player of the Year. He’s the NFL’s Comeback Player of the Year. January 13th is the anniversary of the day that Brooks tore his Achilles tendon versus the New Orleans Saints in the Divisional Round of last season’s playoffs.

The injury he suffered takes quite a bit of care and recovery time even if you don’t play football. While any mortal man would need twelve months to heal properly.
