Achane's ACL and Hall's Thigh Force Fantasy Managers to Prioritize Allen, Kamara

Week 3 injuries, including De'Von Achane's season-ending ACL tear and Breece Hall's thigh issue, have reshaped the fantasy landscape. CBS Sports and NBC Sports identify Braelon Allen and Alvin Kamara as the top running back additions, while Keenan Allen and Darren Waller lead the receiver and tight end categories. Quarterback options like Jacoby Brissett and Marcus Mariota are also highlighted due to injuries to Baker Mayfield and Jayden Daniels.

Kamara's Week 1 Role Likely Limited If Active

Saints running back Alvin Kamara, coming off a knee injury, has cleared practice but is expected to have a limited role in Week 1 against the Lions due to the Saints’ deep backfield; he would likely be used as a passing-down option if active, with Kendre Miller next in line and Kamara likely not the workhorse. In fantasy terms, Kamara could be a low-end FLEX in PPR formats if he plays.

Kamara Re-signs with Saints on $6M Base, Up to $8.5M with Incentives

Running back Alvin Kamara re-signed with the New Orleans Saints on a deal that pays a $6 million base salary for 2026, with incentives that could push total pay to $8.5 million. At 30, he’s entering his 10th season with New Orleans, and the previous contract would have counted $10.45 million against the cap in 2026; the Saints’ addition of Travis Etienne at running back this offseason could shrink Kamara’s role and impact his 2026 workload.

Saints lock in Kamara with new contract for 2026

The New Orleans Saints are finalizing a contract extension to keep Alvin Kamara in New Orleans for the 2026 season. The team had tweaked Kamara’s deal earlier, creating speculation about his future after New Orleans signed Travis Etienne this offseason; Kamara was set to count about $10.45 million against the cap in 2026 and had a 2025 season of 11 games, 471 rushing yards and one touchdown, a career-low.

Kamara welcomes Etienne addition as Saints seek upgraded backfield

Alvin Kamara said on Terron Armstead’s podcast that he’s happy the Saints signed Travis Etienne to a four-year, $52 million deal, stressing that a team can’t rely on one back and he’s excited to team with Etienne. Kamara’s contract was tweaked earlier in the offseason, leaving open the possibility of a pay cut to stay in New Orleans, where he’s projected to count $10.45 million against the salary cap this year. He’s watched Etienne’s play in Jacksonville and hinted at a productive tandem backfield with Etienne and the Saints, echoing the Kamara/Ingram duo from 2017–18.
