It simply hasn’t been the season that New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara had hoped for.
Playing in his ninth NFL season, Kamara’s production has been slowly going down in recent years and so have his explosive big play abilities. As of right now, Kamara is projected to finish the season with a career-low 3.6 yards per carry.
The Saints as a team just haven’t been good, They enter Week 12 last place in the NFC South with a 2-8 record.
What Happened to Alvin Kamara?
Alvin Kamara has been dealing with a nagging ankle injury. Kamara injured his ankle in a practice in October.
With the ankle giving him some issues, Kamara has been questionable in each of the last three game’s for New Orleans. Despite some issues, Kamara has yet to miss a game this season and actually had a a season-high 22 carries in the team’s Week 12 win over the Carolina Panthers.
Is Alvin Kamara Playing In Week 12?
While the New Orleans Saints monitor Kamara’s ankle, he is currently questionable to play this Sunday against the Atlanta Falcons. With the recent trend of him being questionable the last three games with the same injury, it seems as if he will play this weekend.

Alvin Kamara Fantasy Outlook
Alvin Kamara is usually one of the best options in fantasy football. But with age comes reduced production, and that’s been the case for Kamara this season. Through 10 games this season, Kamara has rushed for just 460 yards and one touchdown. In the receiving game, he has just 31 catches for 182 yards.
Kamara isn’t a must start option like he once was, but could be a solid flex option.
Fantasy Replacements if Alvin Kamara Misses Week 12
Chances are, Alvin Kamara doesn’t miss this weekend’s game vs. the Falcons. In the case that he does, there isn’t much on the waivers but some replacement options could be Minnesota Vikings running back Jordan Mason, New York Jets running back Isaiah Davis, or Los Angels Rams running back Blake Corum.
