Alvin Kamara rushed nine times for 36 yards in the Saints’ Week 3 loss to the Raiders, adding one reception for five yards. 2026-09-27 23:00:02 Kamara largely assumed lead rushing duties once RB Travis Etienne left after aggravating his hamstring injury, but it didn’t count for much. The 31-year-old Kamara will likely be the Saints’ starter next week, assuming Etienne cannot play, but he is only an FLEX play against the Falcons. |

Saints RB Alvin Kamara (knee) was removed from the injury report and will play in Week 2 against the Ravens. 2026-09-18 15:00:02 Kamara has successfully rehabbed his MCL sprain and resumed practicing in full this week. He joins a Saints backfield that employed a committee approach in Week 1. Kamara should be expected to play on passing downs. Whether he takes a meaningful rushing share and rotates in for red zone snaps remains unknown. He warrants PPR FLEX consideration with RB2 upside. |

Saints coach Kellen Moore said Alvin Kamara (knee) will play in Week 2 against the Ravens. 2026-09-16 17:00:02 Kamara was limited throughout practice last week and was ruled out with inactives. Moore said today that he could have played but needed more time on task, implying that limited preparation was the larger issue, not Kamara’s health. Travis Etienne split work with Kendre Miller last week. Kamara will presumably take on Miller’s role as the backup, though he could also eat into Etienne’s target total. Etienne caught seven balls in his Saints debut. If he loses that work, Etienne could fall out of the RB2 ranks entirely. |

Alvin Kamara (knee) is inactive for Week 1 against the Lions. 2026-09-13 12:00:03 Kamara practiced in full this week, but the Saints are going to give him at least seven more days to get fully healthy. Kendre Miller will back up Travis Etienne. Also inactive for the Saints are TE Oscar Delp, QB Zach Wilson, OL Mason Murphy, EDGE Cameron Jordan, DL John Ridgeway III, and DL Khristian Boyd. |

Alvin Kamara (knee) is not expected to play in Week 1 against the Lions. 2026-09-13 09:00:03 Kamara practiced in full on Friday but was still listed as questionable for Week 1. It doesn’t sound like there are any immediate concerns with the knee issue, but rather the team wants to ease him back into action with another week of practice. Kendre Miller will serve as the team’s RB2 for this game. |
