Saints TE Graham undergoes wrist surgery
Jimmy Graham - TE - New Orleans Saints
Jan. 25, 2013 - 9:10 PM ET

Jimmy Graham has opted out of the Pro Bowl after undergoing wrist surgery earlier this month.

Graham also played with a dislocated right ring finger down the stretch this season. The injuries led to a career-high 15 drops amongst 100 targets in a down year for New Orleans' usually dominant tight end. The wrist injury never cost Graham a game, but it did affect his on-field performance. Graham will be a prime bounce-back candidate in 2013 fantasy leagues, worthy of a second-round pick in drafts. Minnesota's Kyle Rudolph will replace Graham in Honolulu.
