Saints Excited to Get Alvin Kamara In The Fold

Wednesday, June 10, 5:40 PM

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara has been non-committal about his status during this current contract standoff. Despite that, head coach Kellen Moore says he's excited to get Kamara into the fold. Kamara is entering the final year of his contract, and his long-term status with the organization remains unclear. The Saints signed Travis Etienne Jr. to a four-year deal over the offseason. The expectation is that the Saints will move on from Kamara after this upcoming season, with Etienne locked up. It's a frustrating situation for Kamara, but it's never a bad thing to have two viable options in the backfield. Kamara won't be the every-down back, but the Saints will find a way to get both backs involved.

Is Chris Brooks' Dynasty Cost Still Too Low with the Uncertainty Facing Green Bay's Running Back Room?

Saturday, June 20, 11:53 AM

With running backs Chris Brooks and Emanuel Wilson both facing restricted free agency after the 2025 season, the Green Bay Packers opted to extend an offer to Brooks while allowing Wilson to depart. With the team bypassing the position in both free agency and the draft, Brooks now finds himself battling with 2024 third-round pick MarShawn Lloyd for what could become one of the most valuable insurance roles in the league. With Josh Jacobs' status up in the air following a Memorial Day weekend arrest, either could be thrust into an unexpected starting role in what has been one of the league's run-heaviest offenses in recent years. A frustrating string of injuries has limited Lloyd to only seven total touches over his two years in the league and positioned Brooks as the presumed favorite to claim the primary backup role, though it stands to reason that neither would handle anything close to the 300-carry workload that Jacobs has been given when at full health. With so much uncertainty surrounding both Jacob's legal situation and any division of labor should he miss time, both Brooks and Lloyd need to be rostered in all dynasty leagues, and at RotoBaller's RB94, Brooks is a cheap trade target and smart insurance policy for all Jacobs managers.
