Outlook
After a strong run with the Bengals but which ended on a playoff sour note, Graham has bounced around the league – primarily filling in where starters have been injured. The Texans signed him after the draft and indicated he’d be competing for the starting job with fifth round draft pick Randy Bullock. He looked very good in camp and preseason and then "won" the job after Bullock landed on IR with a torn groin. Graham will be working with long snapper Jonathan Weeks. At holder/punter Brett Hartman, who missed the end of 2011 with a knee injury and is suspended the first three games of 2012, will compete with free agent acquisition Donnie Jones. Graham could be looking at ample scoring opportunities - the Texans have ranked 5th, 13th, 6th, and 13th in attempted kicking points the last four years.
