Jimmy Graham now has two days to sign a long-term contract with the Saints or play under the franchise tag.
As per the CBA, 4:00 p.m. New York time is the deadline for any Club that designated a Franchise Player to sign such player to a multi-year contract or extension. After this date, the player may sign only a one-year contract with his Prior Club for the 2014 season, and such contract cannot be extended until after the Club's last regular season game.
