Alvin Kamara Surprises New Orleans Saints at Wednesday's OTA Session

Kamara’s surprise appearance comes as the Saints weigh a youth movement and a backfield reshuffle after he played 11 games last season.

  • On Wednesday, veteran running back Alvin Kamara made a surprise appearance at New Orleans Saints OTAs, marking a rare participation in voluntary offseason workouts for the nine-year veteran who typically trains independently.
  • Amid ongoing trade speculation and the signing of running back Travis Etienne Jr., Kamara enters the final year of his contract, which counts for more than $10 million against the salary cap.
  • Head coach Kellen Moore expressed surprise at Kamara's arrival but welcomed the veteran to practice, noting he believes the running back can "fit in really well from an offensive standpoint."
  • "I am here, and I am gonna do what I got to do," Kamara said, emphasizing his commitment despite recording career lows of 471 rushing yards during the 2025 season.
  • It remains unclear if Kamara will remain with the Saints through the 2026 season opener in Detroit on September 13 as the front office navigates a youth movement.
