Now retired, the former professional baseball player suited up for the Boston Red Sox, New York Mets, Texas Rangers, Chicago Cubs and the Pittsburgh Pirates during his career from 1992 to 2003. He also played several seasons of Minor League Baseball before he retired in 2009.

Graham is set to follow in his famous family’s footsteps as he is a football player at Brown University. “He’s a wide receiver, he’s an All-American,” Pat gushed in January 2024. “And, he finally decided he wants to be a serious football player, so we have him in the transfer portal and, hopefully, he’s going to choose a school here soon and we can go on with the next chapter with that.”
