New Orleans Saints tight end Jimmy Graham is officially listed as questionable for Week 8 against the Green Bay Packers. Graham was a limited participant in practice all week and definitely isn't up to 100 percent with his shoulder injury. However, he did play in Week 7 against the Detroit Lions, which was a bit of a surprise since most expected him to miss that game.
Jimmy Graham injury update: Saints TE questionable, should start for fantasy owners
Jimmy Graham is questionable for Week 8 against the Green Bay Packers. We break down the fantasy implications.

Graham was a game-time decision against the Lions. He is expected to play this week against the Packers, but his workload is still up in the air. Graham played in fewer than 50 percent of New Orleans’ offensive snaps in that game. But he’s had another week of partial rest and should have a heavier workload this week.
Fantasy Impact: Whatever the case, if a player like Graham is going to play, you simply don’t sit him. Graham is going to play, so fantasy owners should have him in their lineups, and they should expect him to perform reasonably well against the Packers. His shoulder is not a real concern at this point.
