Free-agent tight end
Jimmy Graham wrote on his Instagram account that he's "unsure of what the future holds" after "things ended rather quickly after the season." The 37-year-old returned to the New Orleans Saints last year and played in the NFL after sitting out in 2022 and found the end zone four times on his six catches on the season. Graham only racked up 39 receiving yards in 13 games (two starts). The five-time Pro Bowler was one of the best at his position in his prime with the Saints and Seattle Seahawks earlier in his career, but the 13-year veteran is nearing the end and could officially hang up his cleats this offseason if he doesn't get picked up by another team. If this is the end for Graham, he'd finish his successful NFL career with 719 career catches (1,115 targets) for 8,545 receiving yards and 89 touchdowns in 197 career regular-season games.

New Orleans Saints veteran tight end
Jimmy Graham has now scored a touchdown in three straight games, and draws the right matchup in Week 16 to potentially extend his streak to four. The Los Angeles Rams have surrendered the fifth-most fantasy points per game to the tight end position and are tied for the second-most touchdowns given up to tight ends in 2023 (seven). With that being said, Graham cannot be trusted in fantasy lineups given that his highest snap count over the last three weeks was 16%. Graham has averaged just 1.7 targets per game over the course of his streak. Taking an anytime touchdown prop bet (+500) would be fun, but given his low volume and snap share his floor of zero points is a very possible outcome.

New Orleans Saints tight end
Jimmy Graham has proven to be a valuable addition in his return to the team after spending the first five years of his career in New Orleans. While the 37-year-old primarily operates as a red-zone target, he has been succeeding at his job as of late. Graham caught two passes for nine yards and a touchdown in the win over the New York Giants on Sunday, marking his third straight game with a score. Graham is touchdown-dependent and is not going to put up significant yardage (season-high of 16 yards in Week 14), and therefore should not be rostered.

New Orleans Saints veteran tight end
Jimmy Graham has been seldom used this season, but the 37-year-old has now scored touchdowns in back-to-back weeks. With
Chris Olave (ankle) trending towards missing Week 15's matchup with the New York Giants, there will be plenty of targets to go around. Graham is a clear touchdown-or-bust option and should absolutely be avoided in lineups in the fantasy playoffs, but could be a sneaky low-cost DFS play as
Derek Carr has looked his way in the red zone in recent weeks.
