The Facts:
New Orleans Saints tight end Jimmy Graham rolled his right ankle while making his first catch of the game late in the second quarter of Sunday's game against the San Diego Chargers. Graham had his ankle taped during the final series of the quarter, while David Thomas took snaps in his place. New Orleans confirmed Graham's ankle injury and said the third-year tight end would "try" to give it a go in the second half.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Graham's ankle injury is a buzz kill for fantasy owners who were counting on him to have a productive night. While Graham has played sparingly in the second half, at least it appears that the ankle tweak isn't too serious. The Saints will be on bye in Week 6, which gives Graham two weeks to recover. We'll keep you posted as more info becomes available.
