Saints' Alvin Kamara: Limited Thursday
Kamara (rest/back) was limited at Thursday's practice, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.
Kamara followed up Wednesday's absence from practice with some activity one day later as he eases into the week due to a lingering back issue. Friday's injury report will reveal if he has a designation for Sunday's game against the Browns.

Saints' Alvin Kamara: Returns to practice Thursday
Kamara (rest/back) returned to practice Thursday, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.
The veteran was back on the field Thursday after getting a rest day to open the practice week. Kamara has also dealt with a back issue that limited his practice participation in recent weeks. The Saints are coming off a bye, so the added time off likely bodes well for Kamara being closer to full strength heading into Week 9 against the Browns. New Orleans' practice report will provide insight on Kamara's participation level, but he seems to be trending in the right direction regardless.

Saints' Alvin Kamara: DNP due to rest, back
Kamara (rest/back) didn't practice Wednesday.
The Saints cited rest and back as the reasons for Kamara's absence to begin Week 9 prep, the latter of which impacted his practice reps in each of the three games before the team's Week 8 bye. During that stretch, he tallied 27 touches for 137 yards from scrimmage and one receiving TD. Kamara will have two more opportunities to practice this week and put himself in a position to avoid a designation for Sunday's contest against the Browns.

Saints' Alvin Kamara: Heavy workload as pass catcher Sunday
Kamara carried the ball six times for five yards and caught all seven of his targets for 57 yards in Sunday's 16-10 loss to the Steelers.
The Saints' ground game was completely shut down, as quarterback Tyler Shough led the team with a mere seven rushing yards, but Kamara still contributed through the air and led New Orleans in catches while tying Barion Brown for the game high in receiving yards. Since missing the season opener, Kamara has put together 258 scrimmage yards and three total TDs (two rushing, one receiving) over six games, but the backfield could get more crowded after a Week 8 bye if Travis Etienne (hamstring) is cleared to return.

Saints' Alvin Kamara: Cleared from injury report
Kamara (back) was limited at Friday's practice but does not have an injury designation for Week 7, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.
Kamara did not get a full practice in all week, but it appears that was simply for management purposes, as he will not head into Week 7 with any sort of injury tag. He shared the backfield duties with Kendre Miller and CJ Donaldson each of the last three weeks, and with Travis Etienne (hamstring) spending at least one more game on injured reserve, he figures to do the same Sunday in Paris.

Saints' Alvin Kamara: Limited again Thursday
Kamara (back) practiced in a limited capacity Thursday, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.
Kamara now has logged back-to-back capped practices to begin Week 7 prep as he deals with a back concern for a third consecutive week. He's been able to play through it, but his snap shares in Week 5 (27 percent) and Week 6 (26 percent) didn't equate to much work (14 touches for 75 yards from scrimmage and one receiving TD). Friday's injury report will unveil whether or not Kamara enters the weekend with a designation for Sunday's contest versus the Steelers in Paris.

Saints' Alvin Kamara: Still dealing with back issue
Kamara (back) practiced in a limited capacity Wednesday, Katherine Terrell of ESPN reports.
This now marks three weeks in a row in which Kamara has had practice restrictions due to a back issue, but he's been able to play through it the last two games, accounting for 75 yards from scrimmage and one receiving TD on 14 touches during that stretch. The Saints may limit his on-field work Thursday and/or Friday, but there's been no indication he's in danger of missing Sunday's contest against the Steelers in Paris.

Saints' Alvin Kamara: Gets into end zone against Giants
Kamara carried the ball seven times for 34 yards and caught two of four targets for 35 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 34-27 win over the Giants.
The veteran RB left the game in the first half due to an undisclosed injury, but he was cleared to return and connected with Tyler Shough for a 31-yard score in the third quarter. Kamara's seven touches were well behind Kendre Miller's 22, but his 69 scrimmage yards were just one shy of Miller's 70 for the team lead. The duo will split backfield duties for at least one more game in Week 7 against the Steelers, before Travis Etienne (hamstring) will be eligible to come off IR after a Week 8 bye.

Saints' Alvin Kamara: Back in Sunday's game
Kamara (undisclosed) returned to Sunday's contest at the Giants.
Kamara missed some time in the first half after attempting to haul in a pass from QB Tyler Shough down the left sideline, but his return indicates he'll attempt to gut through whatever is affecting him. Having said that, the Saints are continuing to employ a timeshare between Kamara, Kendre Miller and CJ Donaldson out of the backfield, so Kamara's current outlook isn't exactly fantasy friendly.

Saints' Alvin Kamara: Heads to medical tent Sunday
Kamara (undisclosed) walked slowly to the medical tent during Sunday's game at the Giants, Matthew Paras of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
While attempting to catch a somewhat errant pass down the left sideline, Kamara landed awkwardly and appeared to be shaken up. The current health concern isn't known, but he has been dealing with a back injury the last two weeks, so it may be an aggravation of that issue. Kendre Miller and CJ Donaldson are the Saints' current healthy and available running backs.

Saints' Alvin Kamara: Active in Week 6
Kamara (back) is active for Sunday's game at the Giants, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.
Kamara has dealt with a back injury the past two weeks, and three limited listings during Week 6 prep led to a questionable designation for Sunday. On Sunday morning, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reported that Kamara is expected to play, which now has been confirmed. Since Travis Etienne (hamstring) landed on IR after Week 3, Kamara has earned 17 touches, while fellow RBs Kendre Miller (18) and CJ Donaldon (10) also have had regular roles, making it difficult to trust any of the trio for fantasy purposes.

Saints' Alvin Kamara: Slated to play Sunday
Kamara (back), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's contest at the Giants, is expected to play, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
For a second week in a row, Kamara's practice reps were impacted by a back issue, resulting in limited listings on all three Week 6 injury reports and a questionable designation for Sunday's matchup. His status will be clarified about 90 minutes before a 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff, but if he's active, he'll resume his timeshare out of the Saints backfield with Kendre Miller and CJ Donaldson, which has amounted to 17 touches for Kamara over the last two games.

Saints' Alvin Kamara: Listed as questionable
Kamara (back) practiced on a limited basis Friday is listed as questionable for Sunday's game at the Giants, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.
Kamara was limited at practice all week, but he did get some work in each day from Wednesday through Friday and will have a chance to suit up for Week 6. If Kamara does suit up Sunday he figures to split the backfield work in some fashion with Kendre Miller and CJ Donaldson.

Saints' Alvin Kamara: Another limited session
Kamara (back) practiced in a limited capacity Thursday.
With back-to-back capped sessions under his belt this week due to a lingering back injury, Kamara has one more chance to get back to full Friday, at which point the Saints may tag him with a designation ahead of Sunday's game at the Giants. Even if he's able to suit up this weekend, though, he's been in a tight timeshare with Kendre Miller and CJ Donaldson the last two games, turning his 17 touches into 64 yards from scrimmage and two rushing TDs.

Saints' Alvin Kamara: Remains limited by back issue
Kamara (back) was a limited practice participant Wednesday.
For a second straight week, Kamara is dealing with a back injury, but he was able to play through it this past Sunday against the Vikings, earning a 27 percent snap share and turning five touches into six yards from scrimmage. As for the rest of the backfield, Kendre Miller had 31 percent and 10 touches, while CJ Donaldson paced the group with 42 percent and logged five touches. None of the trio has stood out since Travis Etienne (hamstring) was placed on IR after Week 3, and Kamara's continued health concerns make him even less reliable for fantasy purposes on top of the current timeshare at the position.

Saints' Alvin Kamara: Limited to five touches Sunday
Kamara rushed three times for 12 yards and brought in both targets for minus-6 yards in the Saints' 23-13 loss to the Vikings on Sunday.
Kamara dealt with a back issue during the practice week, and it's possible that helped lead to Kendre Miller outpacing the veteran back by seven carries. Kamara's minimal opportunity unsurprisingly led to a forgettable fantasy day overall, although the entire Saints offense was underwhelming against the vaunted Vikings defense. Given Sunday's division of labor, Kamara could continue losing some touches to Miller while Travis Etienne (hamstring, IR) remains on injured reserve for a Week 6 road matchup against the Giants next Sunday.
