NO RB Alvin Kamara - Week 14 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 14 vs Jets

Alvin Kamara was a surprise inactive last week against the Cowboys, but it looks like he'll finally be back this week after missing the last four games because of injury. And great timing too, as the Saints will likely be without Mark Ingram, who is on the reserve/Covid list. Also, good timing because the Jets are the worst defense in our matchup rankings against opposing running backs. We'll see if the Saints ease him back in, but he was a full participant in practice Wednesday.

NO RB Alvin Kamara - Week 13 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 13 vs Cowboys

Alvin Kamara should return to the lineup Thursday, but it's sounding like the Saints could still be cautious with Kamara, who hasn't played since Week 9. Having Mark Ingram back can allow the Saints to ease Kamara back in, so he may not put up his usual explosive numbers. But his upsides always make him worth a play and we still have him ranked as an RB1 for the week in half-PPR.

Update: Alvin Kamara will not play today.

NO RB Alvin Kamara - Week 10 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 10 vs Titans

The main thing to watch at this point with Alvin Kamara is his practice report. He did not practice Wednesday with a knee injury, so keep a close eye on the rest of the week. But if he's good to go, you're starting him. He's scored in four straight games. Not much else to say on Kamara.

NO RB Alvin Kamara - Week 9 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 9 vs Falcons

If you're worried about Taysom Hill taking work away from Alvin Kamara, keep in mind that Kamara scored a touchdown in three of the four games Hill started in 2020. Hill may see more goal-line work, but they're not going to forget about Kamara. Keep him in the lineup. Two of those three aforementioned games came against the Falcons, whom Kamara and the Saints see in Week 9. Kamara will be just fine.

NO RB Alvin Kamara - Week 8 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 8 vs Buccaneers

Alvin Kamara just has so many different ways to beat you. 128 yards on 10 catches and a touchdown last week against the Seahawks is another example of that. There's really no discussion needed at this point. He's also very happy to be back with his old buddy Mark Ingram, so that should be fun to watch again.

NO RB Alvin Kamara - Week 7 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 7 at Seahawks

Alvin Kamara scored his first rushing touchdown in Week 5 and also added his third receiving touchdown of the season. Safe to say you're starting him regardless of opponent, but especially against a Seattle team that's allowing the third-most rushing yards per game.

NO RB Alvin Kamara - Week 5 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 5 at Washington

With Tony Jones Jr. suffering an ankle injury that will sideline him for a few weeks, this is almost100 percent Alvin Kamara's backfield for the time being. He saw 26 carries in the overtime loss against the Giants for 120 yards. He did lose out on a couple of rushing touchdowns to Taysom Hill, but that isn't too much to worry about for Kamara. Really, Hill is taking those touchdowns from Jameis Winston, almost canceling out the quarterbacks for fantasy purposes. Kamara is our No. 2 RB this week against a middle-of-the-road Washington rush defense.
