I. Player News & Analysis

Trends


"Kamara returns to New Orleans for his ninth NFL season following an impressive, albeit injury-shortened 2024 campaign. Appearing in 14 games, Kamara soaked up 228 carries (12 off his career high) and led all backs in targets. He has yet to finish a season lower than fifth among RBs in targets, or lower than ninth in catches and receiving yards. That has translated in fantasy, as he's finished eighth or better in fantasy PPG in seven of his eight seasons. On the concerning side is durability, as Kamara hasn't played a full regular season since his rookie year (2017) and is now 30 years old. Additionally, the Saints' offense figures to struggle following Derek Carr's retirement. Kamara's clear path to touches and elite receiving work keeps him in the fringe RB1 discussion, but there's obvious risk here."


"Kamara, who missed the last three games of the 2024 regular season with a groin injury, hadn't been participating in the Saints' voluntary workouts this offseason, but his activity during Tuesday's mandatory minicamp session demonstrates that he's moved past the issue. While there's no doubt that Kamara slots in as the team's No. 1 back, it remains to be seen how the rest of the backfield depth chart will shake out prior to Week 1. For now, the top candidates for complementary work behind Kamara (who recorded 228 carries and 68 catches in 14 contests last year) are Kendre Miller, Devin Neal and Clyde Edwards-Helaire."
