By , Reporter
New Orleans Saints tight end Jimmy Graham says that he is prepared for a wait while contract talks take place this off-season.

Jimmy Graham has said that he is ready to wait as he discusses a new contract this off-season.

The New Orleans Saints tight end is due to become a free agent next month, but the NFC South side have not ruled out using their franchise tag on the 27-year-old.

Graham, who was the NFL's leading touchdown scorer in 2013, told the Times-Picayune: "I'm just standing. I take every day one day at a time. I'm just going to wait, see what happens.

"That's not for me to decide. I'm going to do and I'm going to play what ever I'm asked to do. It's that simple."

In his first four seasons in the NFL, Graham has recorded 3,863 receiving yards and 41 touchdowns.
