New Orleans Reunion: Jimmy Graham Returns to New Orleans

Marcelo Unda • July 25, 2023

He's Baaaaaaaaaaccckkkk

Saints and Jimmy Graham have agreed to reunite in New Orleans for one year. I know we are only getting the skeleton of Jimmy Graham and not in Prime Jimmy. I don't care just give me more goal post dunks!

The 12-year veteran, 2013 All Pro, 5x Pro Bowler joins a Saints team that looks to make a run to a win the NFC south Division title.  Jimmy Graham's numbers are nothing to sneeze at:

  • 713 Receptions (7th All-Time)
  • 8,506 Yards (8th All-Time)
  • 85 Touchdowns (3rd All-Time)
  • 11.9 YPC

What a remarkable career when you look back at the numbers. Graham's last game played was in 2021. He spent last season out of the NFL doing what the most interesting human does.

No chance Jimmy takes the Causeway to get to the Northshore when he could just get to a choppa.
Just casually burning calories in Italy. No big deal.

It feels like Graham has lived in entire life already outside of football. He's so much more than a football player which is  inspiring when you think about it. The old threads look good on him, don't they?


When this news broke- it took me back to my only interaction I ever had with  Graham in 2012. I had to dig this up for y'all!


I'm excited for Jimmy and the Saints reunion. I am more excited for what this Saints team has rebuilt it's roster this offseason to prepare for 2023 season. I believe the Saints can compete in the NFC as long as they can stay healthy. I know it will be exciting to see Derek Carr throw bombs inside the Superdome. My early prediction is they win the NFC South and earn a 3 seed. Make it to a NFC Championship game vs the Philadelphia Eagles.

After a weather-delayed kickoff, loyal NOLA Gold fans were treated to a rollercoaster of a match that ended with a well-earned 44-36 victory over the Seattle Seawolves at the Shrine. This win moved NOLA Gold into 3rd place in the Major League Rugby Eastern Conference standings. Coach Danny Lee said of the team's response to the delay, “We just had to control the controllables. Once we told the boys the definitive time for kickoff, we had a plan ready to go. In terms of game plan, we had to be a little bit more direct, and we had to kick and adapt quickly.” NOLA Gold set the tone early, taking an initial 3-0 lead thanks to a steady penalty kick from Dorian Jones. Though Seattle answered quickly with a try to make it 7-3, the Gold launched into a dominant scoring stretch. Isaac Te Tamaki powered across the try line to ignite the offense, followed by back-to-back tries from the relentless Jonah Mau’u. Jones continued to add points from the tee, stretching the Gold’s lead to 27-7. Just before halftime, the Seawolves found a breakthrough and scored at the buzzer, narrowing the margin to 27-14. However, NOLA emerged from the locker room with purpose. Xavier Mignot wasted no time reestablishing momentum with a try that pushed the lead to 34-14. Seattle fought back with intensity, capitalizing on back-to-back tries to bring the score to 34-24. But NOLA responded with composure, as Jones added another penalty to keep the visitors at bay, 37-24. The closing stages of the match saw both teams exchanging blows. Seattle’s try was met by a decisive moment from Joe Taufete’e, who muscled through defenders for a critical score. Luke Campbell’s conversion extended the lead to 44-29. Though Seattle scored one final try at the buzzer, it wasn’t enough. With a final score of 44-36, NOLA Gold walked away with a crucial five-point win in front of a roaring home crowd and strengthens their postseason hopes with a firm grip on 3rd place in the East. Their next match will be on the road against the San Diego Legion on May 4th at 4:00 PM CT. For tickets and more details, please visit www.nolagoldrugby.com
