Report: Jimmy Graham Expected To Miss 2-3 Weeks

Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network reports that Saints TE Jimmy Graham is expected to miss two-three weeks after their Week 6 bye due to a shoulder sprain.

This means Graham is likely to miss their next two games against the Lions and Packers.

It appeared as though there was some optimism this week that Graham would be able to suit up in Week 7, but HC Sean Payton wouldn’t confirm anything, so this was always a possibility.

Without Graham in the lineup, the Saints would have to turn to Ben Watson and Josh Hill at tight end.

We’ll have more updates regarding Graham throughout the week.
