In his second season in the NFL, Graham had 99 receptions for 1,310 yards and 11 touchdowns. That year he made his first Pro Bowl appearance and was selected as an All-Pro player at his position. He became the first tight end in Saints history to have more than 1,000 receiving yards in a season.〔John DeShazier, ("New Orleans Saints tight end Jimmy Graham setting some lofty standards" ), ''Times-Picayune'', December 4, 2011.〕 Graham set the Saints franchise record for receptions in a season while also tying the Saints franchise record for touchdowns in a season (tied with Marques Colston and Joe Horn).〔("New Orleans Saints individual records -- not including quarterback Drew Brees" ) Retrieved August 28, 2012.〕 Graham is also second all-time for most receiving yards and receiving touchdowns by a tight end in a single season.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://voices.yahoo.com/top-five-tight-ends-nfl-11032610.html )〕 ==Early years== Born in Goldsboro, North Carolina, Graham had a difficult upbringing.
