Jimmy Graham Fantasy

New Orleans Saints rookie running back Kendre Miller (illness) is officially active in Week 9 against the Chicago Bears, but veteran tight end Jimmy Graham is a healthy scratch. Miller entered Sunday's game as questionable after popping up on Friday's injury report with an illness. He will be active in the Big Easy, but he's off the starting fantasy radar while being well behind RBs Alvin Kamara and Jamaal Williams in the Saints' backfield. Graham will now miss his second straight game after sitting out the Week 8 win over the Indianapolis Colts due to an illness. The 36-year-old is not on the fantasy radar while being buried on the Saints' TE depth chart. Graham's only reception in 2023 went for an eight-yard touchdown in his return to the NFL this year.

New Orleans Saints veteran tight end Jimmy Graham drew a starter role in Week 4 against Tampa Bay but was not targeted and did not produce any statistics in the blowout loss. Juwan Johnson (calf) has not practiced this week, although Foster Moreau (ankle) is back to full participation and will likely split work with Graham. In a tough matchup against New England, no Saints tight end should be started in fantasy.

New Orleans Saints veteran tight end Jimmy Graham made the team's final 53-man roster heading into the 2023 regular season. The five-time Pro Bowl looked washed up in his last NFL season in 2021 with the Chicago Bears, when he had a career-low 14 receptions for 167 yards and three touchdowns on 23 targets in 15 games (six starts). The 36-year-old was a long shot to make an NFL comeback with his former team, especially after he had a medical episode on Aug. 19. Against all odds, though, Graham has impressed the coaching staff in recent weeks and caught three passes for 34 yards and a touchdown in the preseason finale last weekend. It's a cool story for Graham with the team he began his career with, but he'll have zero fantasy appeal while buried on the TE depth chart behind Juwan Johnson, Foster Moreau and Taysom Hill.
