Devin Neal Poised to Step Up as Saints' Lead Back if Kamara Sits Week 9

Rookie running back Devin Neal of the New Orleans Saints is prepared to assume the role of the team's lead back for Sunday's game against the Rams, should Alvin Kamara be sidelined. Kamara is currently dealing with an ankle injury and is listed as questionable, though he is "trending" to play. Neal's potential increased workload is directly tied to Kamara's availability for Week 9.
