Philadelphia Eagles defensive end Brandon Graham will make his season debut Monday night against the Chicago Bears, and defensive end Juqua Parker is inactive.

Graham had been on the physically unable to perform list with a torn right anterior cruciate ligament that he suffered last December. He recorded 12 tackles and 3.0 sacks in 13 games as a rookie last season.

Parker had been listed as doubtful with an ankle injury after missing practice Friday and Saturday.

Eagles offensive tackle Winston Justice also will sit out the game after being listed as probable with a knee injury.
