New Orleans Saints tight end Jimmy Graham underwent wrist surgery this month and immediately started rehab and says ”everything’s going well” as he continues to recover.
Graham was asked if he’s spoken to Saints head coach Sean Payton now that he’s been reinstated.
“I haven’t talked to him yet, I was going to go by his office today, been very busy as you can see,” Graham said. “I’m just glad to have him back. He’s our leader. I’m just ready to really sit down and speak with him and see what he did with his time off.”

The last two years have been brutal for the standpoint of high profile Saints players in the final year of their contract. The Saints have been able to retain some key parts (Brees, Colston etc) while losing other key players (Goodwin, Nicks, Meachem, Porter to name a few). This year's offseason is not quite as brutal from that standpoint and as fans we can go into it with a...

Theodore Roosevelt said “Do what you can, with what you have, where you are.” Drew Brees and the New Orléans Saints did just that in 2012. All the pieces weren’t in place, and after stumbling out the gate, a late-season push would shoot the Saints back up the rankings leaving them with a glimpse of respect.
Now that head coach Sean Payton is back, it’s time to let bygones...

With Super Bowl week in full swing, a handful of New Orleans restaurants have made slight modifications to their “No shirt, No shoes, No Service” policies by adding “Roger Goodell” to the list of unwelcome items. The NFL commissioner is loathed more in the Big Easy than perhaps any other NFL city, almost entirely due to his handling (and subsequent fumble) of the Bountygate...

How does one celebrate a new contract? If you’re New Orleans Saints’ head coach Sean Payton you do what I would do and head to the Playboy Super Bowl party. (If I actually got invited)
Looks like he even took time away from the dance floor and helped stuff some goodie bags for the Crown Royal Heroes Project. Candy in the bag and on the eyes.
