Jimmy Graham Adds Fuel to Falcons-Saints Rivalry With Savage Posts

Jimmy Graham continued his season-ending roast of the Atlanta Falcons in a subtle way on Tuesday, with the New Orleans Saints tight end, again, taking aim at the NFC South rival on social media.

Graham, after concluding his second Saints stint, drew ire from the Falcons fanbase with a casual “F--- the Falcons” in his defense of Jameis Winston’s late-game call following Sunday’s 48–17 win. In his savage follow-up, the 13-year veteran added fuel to the fiery rivalry with a call back to his memorable 2013 touchdown celebration in Atlanta.

Graham’s reminder came on X (formerly Twitter) in response to a Falcons fan co-signing his view on the beef, and included only a shot of the bent Georgia Dome goalpost he dunked on after scoring a touchdown during a 17–13 win. Ouch:

Given the chatter still surrounding Winston, Graham, clearly, had more to get off his chest, which could signal a sign of more entertaining interactions to come between the Saints legend and one of his longest rivals.
