Alvin Kamara Expected to Return in Week 11, Likely Only as a Pass Catcher

Saints star running back Alvin Kamara is expected to return in week 11, but he will likely only be featured in the contest as a pass-catcher as he nurses a mild left MCL sprain. Kamara missed last week's loss to the Titans, in which Mark Ingram ran 14 times for 47 yards and a touchdown, adding four catches for 61 yards. The fifth-year running back has once again been an integral piece in the Saints (5-4) offense, gaining 840 yards from scrimmage and scoring seven touchdowns. Kamara's return will be a big help for Trevor Siemian, who is starting his second game in relief of Jameis Winston, who is out for the season with a torn ACL.
