David Johnson Officially Retires

Sunday, May 19, 8:50 PM

Running back David Johnson officially announced his retirement on Sunday. The 32-year-old was taken in the third round of the 2015 NFL Draft. He played for three teams, suiting up for the Cardinals, Texans, and Saints. However, Johnson's most productive years were in Arizona, where he had his best season in 2016 by rushing for 1,239 yards and 16 touchdowns off 293 carries and adding 80 catches for 879 yards and four touchdowns. Unfortunately, injuries didn't allow him to recapture the same magic from the 2016 season, although he still had a productive career, ending with 4,071 rushing yards, 2,805 receiving yards, and 57 total touchdowns.

Alvin Kamara News

Alvin Kamara Looking to Break Through Against Tampa Bay

Friday, October 24, 7:58 PM

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara rushed 11 times for just 28 yards and added one yard on three receptions in the Week 7 loss to the Bears. Kamara's struggles continue, as he's posting career-low marks in yards per carry, yards per touch, yards per target, and receiving yards per game. Head coach Kellen Moore remains committed to feeding him the ball, but Kamara has been held to 31 or fewer rushing yards in three straight games, and hasn't found the end zone since Week 1. He was limited in practice throughout the week with an ankle injury but is good to go in the Week 8 matchup against the Buccaneers. Kamara ranks as an RB2, and is in desperate need of a get-right game.
