ESPN reports veteran DE Brandon Graham has agreed to terms on a one-year deal to stay with the Philadelphia Eagles, declining to enter free agency out of loyalty to the organization. The deal is worth up to $6 million, according to a source.

-- Clearing Up Darius Slay's Situation --

NBC Sports reports apparently, Philadelphia Eagles CB Darius Slay did not ask the team for a chance to find a new place to play. It appears that the development is tied to Slay’s contractual situation. Slay is headed into the final year of his current contract and is set to make $17 million with a cap hit of just over $26.1 million. A new deal would bring down that cap hit, but Friday’s development would seem to be a sign that any talks on that front have not been productive. Slay would likely be looking for a new deal from a new team as well, so the chance to speak to other clubs could lead to movement that leads to Slay staying in Philly rather than moving on this offseason.
