Graham, selected in the fifth round of the 2021 NFL Draft (No. 148 overall) out of the University of Texas, has been a steady presence on the Falcons’ roster. Over four seasons, the 26-year-old has appeared in 39 games, starting 16, and recorded 72 tackles (29 solo), one sack, one forced fumble, and one fumble recovery. While not a star, Graham’s versatility and durability provide valuable depth to Atlanta’s defensive front, complementing players like Grady Jarrett and David Onyemata.
The re-signing aligns with the Falcons’ strategy to strengthen their defense after a disappointing 2024 campaign, where they finished third in the NFC South. With the NFL’s 2025 free agency period opening its legal tampering window on March 11, 2025, and the new league year officially starting on March 12, teams across the league have been active in securing talent. Atlanta’s decision to retain Graham reflects their focus on continuity and building a competitive roster under head coach Raheem Morris.
Graham’s college career at Texas saw him develop into a reliable interior lineman, and his NFL journey with the Falcons has been marked by steady contributions, even if his stats haven’t been eye-catching. His re-signing, likely on a modest contract given his role, ensures the team maintains depth while they pursue bigger names in free agency or the 2025 NFL Draft.
Falcons fans are optimistic about the team’s direction, especially as they look to improve their pass rush and run defense, areas where Graham can contribute. As Atlanta navigates the offseason, this move signals their intent to remain competitive in the NFC, setting the stage for an exciting 2025 season at Mercedes-Benz Stadium.
