Who Should I Start? Alvin Kamara or Jakobi Meyers

Sunday, November 23, 10:37 PM

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara's (knee) MRI exam showed an MCL sprain, a source told Nick Underhill of New Orleans Football. Kamara avoided a major injury in Sunday's loss to the Atlanta Falcons in Week 12, but it's unclear if he'll be forced to miss time. It's possible that the 30-year-old misses time, but he is not dealing with a long-term injury. Fantasy managers should expect Kamara to miss at least one game, which means that rookie Devin Neal would be in line for lead-back duties in a strong matchup in Week 13 against the Miami Dolphins. Kamara has been a major disappointment for fantasy managers in 2025 in a struggling Saints offense. He had only three carries for 11 yards and caught both his targets for four yards on Sunday before leaving early. Neal finished with seven carries for 18 yards and caught five of seven targets for 43 yards through the air. Taysom Hill had a team-high 10 carries for 17 yards and will also be much more involved in the backfield for the Saints if Kamara misses time going forward.

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Jakobi Meyers should once again have an increased role in the passing game this weekend. Fellow wideout Brian Thomas Jr. (ankle) has been ruled out for the third straight week. Last week, Meyers hauled in five of his six targets for 64 yards in the win over the Los Angeles Chargers. The assumption is that his role will continue to grow as he keeps learning the playbook. Meyers should be able to at least give fantasy managers WR3 value for this upcoming matchup against the Arizona Cardinals.
