Ty Chandler News

Saints Agree With Ty Chandler on Tuesday

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

Kendre Miller is Limited in Practice

Thursday, June 11, 5:41 PM

New Orleans Saints running back Kendre Miller (knee) was a limited participant in practice on Wednesday. Miller is taking part in minicamp and 11-on-11 reps, but remains limited while he recovers from ACL surgery. He suffered a torn ACL in October of last year and is still not 100 percent healthy quite yet. When healthy, Miller will be competing for snaps with Alvin Kamara and Travis Etienne Jr. in the backfield. He has played a limited role in the backfield during his first three seasons with the Saints. Miller could be a viable depth option, but he is unlikely to be a trustworthy fantasy option.
