Darren Rizzi told reporters the New Orleans Saints would take a committee approach to replacing Alvin Kamara. Rizzi laid out the plan was to use Kendre Miller, Jordan Mims and Jamaal Williams in the backfield.

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara missed the team’s Week 16 contest against the Green Bay Packers on Monday Night Football. Let’s examine what happened to Kamara and whether he’ll suit up for New Orleans in Week 17 against the Las Vegas Raiders (or at any point this season).

METAIRIE, La. (AP) — Alvin Kamara’s groin injury is “a little bit more significant” than the Saints initially thought, but it remains unclear how many of New Orleans’ final three games he’ll miss, coach Darren Rizzi said Thursday.

The New Orleans Saints head to Green Bay for a Monday Night Football game against the Packers. The task will be difficult enough with a dome team playing on the Frozen Tundra. Compounding the test, QB Derek Carr will be unavailable. That news only added a heightened focus on running back Alvin Kamara’s current status.

Saints coach Darren Rizzi told reporters Monday that Kamara was dealing with a "groin adductor" type of injury, per ESPN's Katherine Terrell. Rizzi declined to elaborate on whether the injury was minor and told reporters more testing would be done on the running back.

Four Saints did not practice on Thursday, and two of them sound like they'll be done for the rest of the season.
