Neal Steps Up as Saints' RB1 with Kamara Out, Logs 17 Touches

New Orleans Saints rookie RB Devin Neal logged 14 rushes for 47 yards and caught all three targets for 22 yards during Sunday's 21-17 loss to the Dolphins, totaling 17 touches. He set career highs in rushing attempts and yards while filling in for the inactive Alvin Kamara, who suffered an MCL sprain. Neal handled the bulk of carries, with other RBs Evan Hull and Audric Estime seeing limited action. With Kamara expected to miss more time, Neal is set for moderate usage as the Saints' No. 1 running back. The team faces Tampa Bay in Week 14.
