ALVIN KAMARA NEWS

No practice Wednesday Kamara (groin) didn't practice Wednesday, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.

Impact Kamara has yet to take part in drills since sustaining an adductor injury Week 15 against the Commanders. With Kendre Miller in the concussion protocol, Jamaal Williams, Jordan Mims and practice-squad member Clyde Edwards-Helaire are the healthy running backs available for the Saints. Kamara will have two more chances this week to get back on the practice field before the team potentially makes a ruling on his status for Sunday's season finale at Tampa Bay.

Week 18 status up to medical staff Kamara (groin) wants to play Sunday versus Tampa Bay, but that decision will be left up to the Saints' medical staff, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Kamara has sat out each of New Orleans' past two games due to an adductor injury. The star running back didn't practice at all last week, and he'd almost certainly have to return in at least a limited capacity this week in order to have any chance of suiting up Sunday. Kendre Miller is currently in concussion protocol, so Clyde Edwards-Helaire, Jamaal Williams and Jordan Mims could form the Saints' backfield in Week 18 if neither Kamara nor Miller is able to play.

Saints Determine Playing Status for Derek Carr and Alvin Kamara vs Raiders New Orleans has announced whether Derek Carr and Alvin Kamara can play against the Raiders in Week 17.

DECEMBER 27, 2024 • NEWSOBSERVER.COM

Out for Week 17 Kamara (groin) has been ruled out for Sunday's contest against the Raiders.

Impact Kamara wasn't able to practice this week due to an adductor injury and thus will miss a second consecutive game. Without Kamara's services Monday at Green Bay, Jordan Mims actually led the Saints backfield in snap share (45 percent) to Kendre Miller's 39 percent and Jamaal Williams' 18 percent. However, Miller's 10 touches went for 31 yards, Mims' nine touches equated to 32 yards, and Williams' three carries resulted in eight yards. Kamara has one more chance Week 18 at Tampa Bay to make an appearance this season.

No practice Thursday Kamara (groin) didn't practice Thursday, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Kamara has been held out of all drills since sustaining an adductor injury Week 15 against the Commanders, but interim coach Darren Rizzi told John Hendrix of SI.com on Thursday that the running back was in the midst of rehab and in "good spirits." Such comments don't exactly shed light on Kamara's prospects for Sunday's game versus the Raiders, but Friday's practice report may provide some clarity on that front. Kendre Miller, Jamaal Williams and Jordan Mims are on hand in the event Kamara requires another absence this weekend.

DNP on Wednesday's estimate Kamara (groin) was estimated as a non-participant on Wednesday's practice report.

Impact Kamara hasn't practiced since suffering an adductor injury during a Week 15 loss to the Commanders. Interim coach Darren Rizzi told Mike Triplett of NewOrleans.Football on Tuesday that Kamara will attempt to return this season, but it's unclear how much of a chance the running back has to play Sunday versus the Raiders. Kamara likely will need to mix into at least some drills Thursday and/or Friday to put himself on a path to do so. Kendre Miller, Jamaal Williams and Jordan Mims will man the backfield Week 17 if Kamara isn't able to.

Impact Rizzi noted that Kamara met with him earlier Tuesday and let him know that he wants to suit up Sunday, though a decision on the running back's status isn't expected to be made until later in the week, after the Saints get a chance to see how he responds to practice work. While Kamara was sidelined for his first game of the season in Monday's 34-0 loss to the Packers, Kendre Miller stepped in as New Orleans' lead back but was limited to 31 total yards on 10 touches (eight carries, two receptions).

Won't play Monday Interim coach Darren Rizzi said Saturday that Kamara (groin) has been ruled out for Monday's game at Green Bay, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.

Impact This comes as no surprise, as Kamara didn't practice during Week 16 prep following comments from Rizzi on Thursday that the running back wasn't likely to suit up. In Kamara's place, Kendre Miller is set to lead the Saints backfield Monday, with Jamaal Williams and Jordan Mims available for complementary reps. Kamara's next chance to play is Sunday, Dec. 29 against the Raiders.
