Kendre Miller News
Tuesday, July 28, 1:06 PM
New Orleans Saints running back Kendre Miller (knee) is good to go for the start of training camp, general manager Mickey Loomis said, according to Tina Howell. Miller is returning from a torn ACL suffered during a Week 7 loss to Chicago, an injury that ended his 2025 season after seven games. The 24-year-old rushed 47 times for 193 yards and one touchdown while adding five receptions for 30 yards, averaging a career-high 4.1 yards per carry. Before the injury, head coach Kellen Moore said Miller had earned more opportunities and could provide a useful complement to Alvin Kamara. The 6-foot, 220-pound back had light participation during the spring as New Orleans managed his workload. Loomis' update indicates Miller is available when camp opens, though it does not confirm that he will immediately handle unrestricted reps. A healthy camp would allow Miller to compete with Kamara and Devin Neal for backfield work, but his practice participation will be the first important test of his recovery.

Jaydon Blue News
Wednesday, July 29, 2:16 PM
Dallas Cowboys second-year running back Jaydon Blue has flashed early in training camp this summer and had one of the highlights of the first day of practice on Wednesday, according to Jon Machota of The Athletic. "My speed is what I'm best at. Once I get in the open field and it's one-on-one, I don't think anyone in this league can stand a chance," Blue said. Head coach Brian Schottenheimer said back in June that the 22-year-old Blue has been "night and day" in terms of his performance this year compared to last year. Javonte Williams is Dallas' clear RB1 after a career year in his first year with the Cowboys in 2025, but the RB2 job is up for grabs, and based on Blue's strong work so far, he may very well be the favorite. The former fifth-rounder from the University of Texas could never get his legs under him in a trying rookie campaign, as he had only 38 rushing attempts for 129 yards and a touchdown while adding one catch for five yards in five games played. Blue is battling with Malik Davis and Phil Mafah for the RB2 role this summer, with his elite speed giving him a leg up. The time is now for Blue to make his move.
