Netflix is set to captivate sports fans and documentary lovers alike with the upcoming release of “THE UNDERDOG”, a compelling new film chronicling the life and career of NFL veteran Brandon Graham. Dropping on May 25th, the documentary dives deep into the trials, triumphs, and unwavering determination of the beloved Philadelphia Eagles defensive end.
Graham, known as much for his infectious energy as for his clutch Super Bowl strip-sack on Tom Brady, has long been a fan favorite. But his path to NFL stardom was anything but easy. “THE UNDERDOG” explores his early struggles growing up in Detroit, being doubted at the University of Michigan, and battling injuries and criticism during his early NFL years. Despite the obstacles, Graham emerged as a cornerstone of the Eagles’ defense and a Super Bowl champion — embodying the very definition of an underdog.
Directed with raw honesty and emotional depth, the film features behind-the-scenes footage, interviews with teammates, coaches, and family, and rare moments of reflection from Graham himself. It offers viewers a deeper look at what makes him more than just a football player — a leader, a fighter, and an inspiration.
As Netflix continues to expand its sports documentary lineup, “THE UNDERDOG” is poised to resonate with anyone who’s ever been counted out. Whether you’re an Eagles fan or simply love a great comeback story, this is one release you won’t want to miss.
