Graham

Graham was injured in Wednesday’s practice. It’s a blow to the Falcons’ depth at the position after Graham has played in all 32 games, spanning 300-plus snaps, over the last two seasons. Atlanta signed WR/KR Trevor Davis to take Graham’s roster spot.

Graham, an exclusive rights free agent, has totaled 12 receptions for 174 yards and one score across 32 games with the Falcons. He’ll continue to be used sparingly behind Hayden Hurst and Luke Stocker this upcoming season.

The UDFA out of Yale is filling in for an injured Austin Hooper (knee) and caught his first NFL touchdown on Thanksgiving. He has a 7-117-1 line on eight targets over the last three weeks. Hooper should be back very soon from his MCL sprain, making Graham little more than a neat story right now.

Diagnosed with a sprained MCL earlier this week, Hooper could be facing up to a month-long absence. Luke Stocker and Jaeden Graham will pick up the slack at tight end in Hooper’s absence. Neither are realistic fantasy options.
