Alvin Kamara to Miss a Month Due to Injury

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara is expected to be out for a month following a sprained MCL sustained during practice on Tuesday. This injury comes shortly after the team lost rookie wide receiver Jordyn Tyson to a hamstring injury.

Kamara, who recently signed a contract extension through the 2026 season, is now at risk of missing the season opener against the Detroit Lions. His absence adds to the challenges faced by the Saints, who are already adjusting to Tyson's injury.

With Kamara sidelined, the Saints will rely on Travis Etienne Jr. as the lead tailback, while Devin Neal, Kendre Miller, and Audric Estime are expected to step up in the running back position. The team hopes to avoid further injuries as the season approaches.
