Sounds like it will to me... "The New Orleans Saints designated Jimmy Graham as their franchise player for 2014. The team insists Graham is a tight end, which would pay him $7 million under the franchise tag. Graham says he’s a wide receiver, a designation that brings a $12.3 million salary. The two sides are in arbitration to decide the matter and some of the evidence is quite compelling, like the NFLPA saying Graham lines up at receiver 67% of the time, or the NFL quoting Graham’s Twitter bio. Yes, his Twitter bio." http://ftw.usatoday.com/2014/06/jimmy-graham-contract-franchise-player-tight-end-twitter

Graham is a wide receiver. He never run blocks and rarely lines up in a three point stance.

My how social media can impact one's life. He's gonna miss out on $5.3 million because he labeled himself on twitter. :headshake:

Not according to his twitter bio. He calls himself a TE.

Yup, probably figured it's more prestigious to count yourself #1 of TEs instead of #5 of WRs. Now it may bite him in his prestigious @ss.

Wobble calls himself a tight end also, but everyone knows it's a lie.

It might help if his t grew up. Maybe Ox will fix it for him like he did J's.

With that kind of money I was guessing he was related to Billy Graham.
