A significant turning point for him was his four-year, $40 million contract agreement with the Saints in 2014. He played for the Saints for five seasons before switching to the Seattle Seahawks in 2015.
The Green Bay Packers rang in 2018 with a three-year, $30 million deal. Graham was fined $25,000 for skipping press conferences, which made his second season with the Packers more fascinating. Despite his accomplishments, the Packers let him go in 2020 after just two seasons.
