Who Should I Start? Alvin Kamara or Cedric Tillman

Sunday, August 17, 1:06 PM

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara is not suiting up for the team's second preseason game on Sunday against the Jacksonville Jaguars, according to Erin Summers of ESPN. Kamara was seen doing pre-game workouts with the rest of the team, but it's the second straight preseason game in which he will not play. Rookie Devin Neal (hamstring) also will sit out, which means the Saints will roll forward against the Jags with Kendre Miller, Cam Akers and Clyde Edwards-Helaire in their backfield. It remains to be seen if Kamara will play in the preseason finale next Saturday against the Denver Broncos. The 30-year-old five-time Pro Bowler should be a workhorse once again in head coach Kellen Moore's offense. Kamara has had at least 47 catches in his eight-year career, but he's never rushed for 1,000 yards on the ground. RotoBaller has him ranked as the RB20 in fantasy heading into the 2025 season.

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Cedric Tillman caught his lone target for an 18-yard gain in a 22-13 preseason win over the Philadelphia Eagles on Saturday. Tillman got the start and played for a short time after he did not suit up for the team's preseason opener against the Carolina Panthers last week. The third-year wideout hauled in his lone target on the Browns' second drive of the game. Tillman had some big weeks late in the 2024 season before a concussion ended his year early, but he still holds plenty of fantasy value as a sleeper in a Cleveland receiver room that is wide open behind Jerry Jeudy. He's worth a look as a dart throw WR6 late in fantasy drafts later this summer.
