Jimmy Graham’s future in the NFL is still up in the air. The veteran tight end is still mulling whether or not he’ll suit up during the 2024 campaign. When asked about playing this season, the 37-year-old told ESPN that he’s “not sure yet” but relayed that he will reach out to the New Orleans Saints before making that call.

After sitting out of the 2022 season, Graham signed a one-year deal to return to the Saints, where he spent the first five years of his career.

He had previously noted that he’d only play for New Orleans if he were to return and that seems to still be the case.
“I don’t have any expectations,” Graham said. “I just want to make sure when I retire, it’s as a Saint, and it’s when they want me to. I’ll just make sure I give them a call and see exactly when they want me to retire and then I’ll end up doing it.”
