Ty Chandler News
Tuesday, March 17, 12:29 PM
The New Orleans Saints announced on Tuesday that they agreed to terms on an undisclosed one-year deal with free-agent running back Ty Chandler, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. The Saints added Travis Etienne Jr. to their backfield in free agency and could move on from veteran Alvin Kamara as a result. In the Big Easy, the 27-year-old Chandler will most likely be competing for backup duties with Kendre Miller, Devin Neal, and Audric Estime going into the 2026 season. The former fifth-round pick by the Minnesota Vikings in 2022 out of North Carolina was limited to only three games in 2025 due to injury, carrying the ball 17 times for 47 yards and catching three passes for 11 yards. Chandler's best season came in Year 2 in 2023, when he had 102 rushing attempts for 461 yards and three touchdowns, adding 21 receptions for another 159 yards in 17 games (four starts). With a likely limited role on offense with the Saints, Chandler is, at best, a dynasty/keeper stash for RB depth.

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.
