Alvin Kamara

Saints RB Alvin Kamara had 16 rushes for 71 yards and a touchdown and caught 5-of-8 targets for 51 yards with another score in Sunday's Week 5 win over the Football Team.

Fantasy Impact

Kamara had a big outing in the win, Washington's defense was already struggling and Kamara exploited it with two scores while gashing them for over 100 total yards of offense. Kamara has a bye in Week 6.

Saints RB Alvin Kamara rushed 26 times for 120 yards while not seeing a single target as a receiver in Sunday's Week 4 loss to the Giants.

Fantasy Impact

Kamara not logging a single target is a concern. His passing game usage in the past propelled Kamara to top-five running back status. Without it, he will need to score more, which did not happen in Sunday's loss. It was Taysom Hill who scored twice around the goal line. Kamara has a prime bounce-back spot in Week 5 at Washington.

Saints RB Alvin Kamara rushed 24 times for 89 yards while catching 3-of-4 targets for 29 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's Week 3 win over the Patriots.

Fantasy Impact

Kamara was a fantasy dud in Week 2 but bounced back in Sunday's win with 118 total yards and a score. Kamara is still the focal point of the Saints' offense and should have another productive game in Week 4 against the Giants.

Saints RB Alvin Kamara rushed eight times for five yards while adding another 25 yards on 4-of-6 targets in Sunday's Week 2 loss to the Panthers.

Fantasy Impact

This is not a great sign for Kamara. Not only did he fail to find the end zone, but he only totaled 30 yards. Whoa. If the Saints' offense can't get it going, Kamara might have more of these games. He gets the patriots in Week 3.

Saints Alvin Kamara rushed 20 times for 83 yards while hauling in 3-of-4 targets for eight yards and a touchdown in Sunday's Week 1 win over the Packers.

Fantasy Impact

Kamara totaled 91 yards with a score on 23 touches. Normally a highly targeted back, I don't know if fantasy managers could depend on 6+ targets from Kamara every week like in the Drew Brees days. He will have his sporadic outputs, but the Saints don't want to throw a ton and expose Jameis Winston's handicaps. Kamara will get the Panthers in Week 2.
