Alvin Kamara Splits Backfield Workload Following Injury to Travis Etienne

AutoDraft Pro AI

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara carried the ball nine times for 36 yards and caught his only target for five yards in a 35-27 loss to the Raiders. Kamara initially played a secondary role behind Travis Etienne, but inherited a shared workload alongside Kendre Miller after Etienne aggravated a hamstring strain in the third quarter. If Etienne misses significant time, Kamara is expected to continue sharing backfield touches moving forward.
