The Facts:
An intense flare-up of back spasms during pregame warmups nearly kept Graham out of the starting lineup Sunday. Graham wouldn't say if he took any shots for the pain, but he was seen getting electric stimulation throughout the day to keep his muscles loose. He said he will get a MRI exam back in New Orleans and hopes he'll start feeling better over the next few days.

"It kind of scared me," Graham said of the lower back pain that "came out of nowhere" after he made an "awkward" catch during pre-game warmups. "I was in excruciating pain. I didn't think I was gonna go," he said. Graham fought through the pain and caught five passes for 55 yards. He almost added a 4-yard touchdown in the fourth quarter, but officials ruled that his toe tickled the out-of-bounds grass. "I'll be good," Graham said. "And even if I'm not, I'll still play. ... Doesn't matter the pain, doesn't matter what I'm going through, I'm still going to play. ..." Stay tuned.
