Overview
- New Orleans announced Kamara will play against Carolina after he was listed questionable with an ankle injury.
- Kamara practiced on a limited basis all week without logging a full session.
- His workload has fallen from 19.5 touches per game in his first four outings to 11.2 over his past five, including six rushes in each of the last two games and no more than three targets in each of the last three.
- With Kendre Miller out for the season, rookie Devin Neal has taken 46% and 39% of the running back snaps in the past two games.
- Analysts advise benching Kamara in many formats given his recent production and the Saints’ struggling 1-7 offense against a middle-of-the-pack Panthers run defense.
