Will Alvin Kamara Retire?

Thursday, March 12, 11:29 AM

Andrew Siciliano wonders whether New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara (knee) will retire this offseason after an interesting question-and-answer session with head coach Kellen Moore on Kamara and new RB addition Travis Etienne Jr. on Thursday. Moore didn't specifically answer a reporter's question on whether the Saints expect Kamara to be a part of the team in 2026, other than saying Kamara "means a lot to us." When asked specifically if Kamara is considering retirement, Moore said, "I'm not going to get into all that stuff." The Saints restructured the 30-year-old's contract recently in a way that puts his future with the organization in question, and there are only more questions about Kamara after New Orleans signed Etienne to a four-year, $52 million contract on Monday. Kamara has ended the last two seasons injured, and if he wants to continue playing in the NFL, he could be doing so outside the Big Easy for the first time in his career.

De'Von Achane News

De'Von Achane is the Last Playmaker Standing in Miami

Tuesday, March 17, 4:24 PM

Miami Dolphins running back De'Von Achane has seen the fantasy landscape around him change dramatically since finishing as the RB5 in 2025. The hiring of defensive-minded head coach Jeff Hafley and offensive coordinator Bobby Slowik, who was fired from the same position with Houston following the 2024 season, raised questions about Achane's usage. The signing of Malik Willis, a quarterback not known for featuring his running backs in the passing game, did little to dispel them. Now, with the trading of Jaylen Waddle to the Broncos, Achane remains as the last true playmaker on the roster, and assuming he isn't next on the trade block, he'll likely be the focal point of every defensive coordinator Miami faces in 2026. While there is something to be said for being the driving force of the Dolphins' offense, the arrow is pointed way down for the unit as a whole, creating a difficult environment for any running back to thrive.
