Kamara (knee) suffered a sprained MCL in Sunday's loss to the Falcons, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.
While Kamara avoided a major injury, a sprained MCL typically comes with a multi-week recovery timeline. Kamara played just 11 offensive snaps against Atlanta prior to leaving the game, allowing rookie Devin Neal to assume somewhat of an every-down role, though Taysom Hill also became more involved as a runner following Kamara's departure. Neal gained just 18 yards on seven carries and caught five passes for 43 yards on seven targets. He is one of the highest-priority waiver-wire pickups for Week 13 with Kamara's status for Sunday's game against the Dolphins very much in question.
