Report: Jimmy Graham unlikely to return to Seattle
Jimmy Graham’s Seattle Seahawks career may be over after just three years.
Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reported on Monday that the former All-Pro tight end, who is a free agent this offseason, is “generally considered really unlikely” to return to the Seahawks.
Graham, 31, defied the odds these last two seasons by returning to Pro Bowl form after suffering a torn patellar tendon in November 2015. He finished the 2017 campaign with 57 catches for 520 yards and a team-high 10 touchdowns.
For what it’s worth, Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson indicated that he would like to see Graham back, per Gregg Bell of The News Tribune.

Nevertheless, the Seahawks are already expected to see some major defensive changes in 2018, and that may now extend to the other side of the ball as well.
