Alvin Kamara

The Saints published their Week 4 inactives report and Alvin Kamara is INACTIVE for their matchup against the Vikings. We break down what it means.

Murray was elevated from the practice squad on Saturday but should still see some carries. I think Ingram is worth a dart throw flex play from the expected workload, but I’d leave Murray on the bench. He was limited in practice throughout the week and tested the injury during warmups and is unable to take the field today.

The New Orleans Saints will be without Alvin Kamara, Jameis Winston and Michael Thomas against the Minnesota Vikings.

He’s off to a solid start in 2022 with three touchdowns, but now he finds himself out for this Vikings game because of a foot injury. In addition to the two missed games, Kamara didn’t find the end zone yet in either game he appeared in. He returned to play last week and had a modest performance in an ugly loss to the Carolina Panthers, rushing 15 times for 61 yards and catching just two passes for 12 yards despite being targeted seven times.

Kamara (ribs) is not slated to play Sunday against the Vikings, Stacey Dales of NFL Network reports.

Injuries have reshuffled the Saints passing attack. Here's how New Orleans can have success against Minnesota's defense through the air in this pivotal week ...

Wonnum, with their chances to win likely dependent on the ability to contain them. With Landry hobbled, Peterson could spend much of the time in coverage on Olave, which presents the biggest challenge of Olave's young career to date. These three are fearsome pass rushers with the ability to change the momentum of a game. Harrison Smith will be back in the lineup after missing last week with a concussion. He and Olave worked up a strong chemistry with Dalton during the preseason. It's crucial that the other New Orleans wideouts get separation against Dantzler and Sullivan, who have given up a combined 85% completion rate when targeted this season. Expect the Saints to keep TE Adam Trautman in as an extra blocker on several pass plays. Remember that he took the Cincinnati Bengals to the playoffs in each of his first five seasons. While it's vital that New Orleans is able to run the ball, their battered passing game will also need to be productive behind a backup quarterback. It was the prelude to a New Orleans win in Super Bowl XLIV. The Saints have not gotten off to an encouraging start in 2022. This is the 37th all-time meeting between the Saints and Vikings.
