Alvin Kamara's Role Shrinks Amid Injury
Alvin Kamara's Role Shrinks Amid Injury
Saints RB Alvin Kamara played a season-low 12 snaps in Sunday's loss to the Vikings, a game he entered questionable after a back issue limited his practice time during the week. Kamara finished with just 3 carries for 12 yards and 2 catches for minus-6 on 2 targets. CJ Donaldson led the New Orleans backfield at 19 snaps, carrying four times for 13 yards and catching his only target for 7. Kendre Miller posted a 10-30-1 rushing line -- scoring the team's lone offensive TD -- while running just one pass route.
Alvin Kamara Held Out Wednesday
Alvin Kamara Held Out Wednesday
Saints RB Alvin Kamara (back) did not practice on Wednesday. He played 28 snaps just two days ago, so this could just be early-week rest for the veteran. We'll update Kamara's status again tomorrow. His absence vs. the Vikings this weekend would leave New Orleans' backfield to Kendre Miller and C.J. Donaldson.
Travis Etienne To IR
Travis Etienne To IR
The Saints are placing RB Travis Etienne on IR with his hamstring injury, HC Kellen Moore said Thursday. Etienne is out for at least the next 4 games. That extends to New Orleans' Week 8 bye, so Week 9 is the earliest we'll see Etienne again.
Travis Etienne Will Miss Time With Hamstring Injury
Travis Etienne Will Miss Time With Hamstring Injury
Saints HC Kellen Moore confirmed that RB Travis Etienne will miss time with his hamstring injury. Exactly how much time remains unclear. It's worth noting that New Orleans has a Week 8 bye, so Etienne could miss 4 games, take the bye week, and return for Week 9. We'll see if he lands on IR later this week.
It might be time to worry about Travis Etienne
It might be time to worry about Travis Etienne
The Saints upset the Ravens in Week 2, but the RB split makes Travis Etienne a fantasy concern going forward. Alvin Kamara returned to the lineup after missing Week 1, and Kendre Miller was inactive. That didn’t seem to help Etienne, who had 8 rushes for 25 yards. Kamara had 9 carries for 15 yards and was most active in the passing game, catching 5 of 6 targets for 7 yards, while Etienne caught both his targets for 6 yards. It appears Etienne is set to split time no matter which other RBs are active.
