Updating previous reports, New Orleans Saints RB Alvin Kamara (knee) suffered a sprained medial collateral ligament, and he's expected to be out at least a month.
Huddle Up: That should push through Week 1 against the Detroit Lions Sept. 13. Kendre Miller (back) and Devin Neal (hamstring) have both dealt with issues in camp, but they're next in line. Neither were locks to make the team before this injury, so monitor this situation before jumping at one of them to handcuff to Travis Etienne.

New Orleans Saints RB Alvin Kamara agreed to a new deal Thursday, July 16, that includes a $6 million base salary and could be worth $8.5 million in incentives.
Huddle Up: Kamara turns 31 shortly and played just 11 games last season. He rushed for a career-low 3.6 yards per carry and had career lows across the board. They brought in Travis Etienne to run the show in the backfield, but this salary doesn't exactly spell backup for a running back. Kamara will be involved, but it will likely be more in the passing game. Etienne has been oft-injured, too, so Kamara could cash in on his PPR RB3 chips for stretches in the season.

Huddle Up: It appears like Kamara will remain with the Saints for the 2026 season but will likely see a drop in touches with Travis Etienne on the roster. Kamara can be a No. 4 running back in leagues but is unlikely to be a starting option most weeks.

New Orleans Saints RB Alvin Kamara and the team have not had "a lot of traction" on a revised deal that could allow Kamara to return to the Saints in 2026.
Huddle Up: Even if Kamara does end up back with the Saints, he is going to be behind Travis Etienne in the pecking order. Kamara could still have value as a third-down back, but he is likely a flex option or RB3 regardless of where he plays.
