"Bates should garner some interest as both Harold Fannin (groin) and David Njoku (knee) having been ruled out for Week 18. Bates and Blake Whiteheart are poised to see more playing time, although practice-squad member Sal Cannella, who led Cleveland's tight ends in targets last week, could steal some thunder if added to the roster for the game."

Alvin Kamara

Pos: RB1 Team: NO YoE: 9
Draft: RD 3, PICK 67
Injury Status: Q Return Date: 2026-02-09



I. Player News & Analysis


ESPN

RotoWire

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 has produced at least 1,160 scrimmage yards in each of his first eight NFL regular seasons, but that streak of 1,000-yard campaigns would be in jeopardy if the MRI results reveal an injury significant enough to warrant Kamara missing additional action. Rookie sixth-round pick Devin Neal took over as the Saints' lead back after Kamara got hurt, and Neal would presumably lead New Orleans' backfield in Week 13 at Miami if Kamara isn't available."

Alvin Kamara's targets have decreased by 42.86% over the past 6 weeks.

Alvin Kamara's rushing yards have increased by 37.21% over the past 6 weeks.

Alvin Kamara's rushing attempts have decreased by 24.66% over the past 10 weeks.

Alvin Kamara's rushing yards per attempt has decreased by 20.49% over the past 10 weeks.

Alvin Kamara's rushing touchdowns have decreased by 75.0+% over the past 24 weeks.
