Who Should I Start? Alvin Kamara or Terry McLaurin

Sunday, November 2, 3:06 PM

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara (ankle) is officially active for Sunday's Week 9 contest against the Los Angeles Rams. He had been listed as questionable after logging a limited practice on Friday. The 30-year-old has been disappointing this season, amassing just 363 rushing yards, 147 receiving yards, and one touchdown through eight games. Even with Kendre Miller (knee) sidelined, Kamara hasn't been able to carve out a major role within New Orleans' offense. He'll likely continue to play around 60 percent of the snaps with roughly a dozen touches against the Rams. His pass-catching skills give him low-end RB2 appeal in PPR leagues, but for the most part, he should be deployed as an RB3/flex.

The Washington Commanders aren't expecting wide receiver Terry McLaurin (quadriceps) to play in the Week 10 contest against the Detroit Lions, according to Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post. "I don't foresee (Terry McLaurin) making it for this weekend. Knowing it's game-game-bye, that has an effect. But I don't have a timetable today," head coach Dan Quinn said. McLaurin suffered a quad injury in Week 4 and missed four games. When he returned in Week 8, the 30-year-old veteran aggravated the injury, and now he appears set to miss a second straight game this coming Sunday. The Commanders have their bye in Week 12, so it's entirely possible that we don't see McLaurin again until Week 13 on Sunday Night Football against the Denver Broncos. In addition to McLaurin's injury, Washington may have lost quarterback Jayden Daniels on Sunday night to a dislocated left elbow. McLaurin's 2025 season so far has been a bust due to injuries, and he has only one touchdown on 13 receptions for 203 yards in four games.
