Drafting Kendre Miller and the potential impact on Alvin Kamara’s career

For the first time since 2017, Alvin Kamara will perhaps not be the New Orleans Saints’ starting running back.

2023 holds several mysteries for the three-time Pro Bowler Kamara. The biggest mysteries involve the length of his impending suspension and sharing the backfield with newcomers Jamaal Williams and Kendre Miller.

On Feb. 16, 2022, Kamara was indicted for alleged assault taking place during the 2022 NFL Pro Bowl weekend in Las Vegas, Nevada. On March 2, 2023, Kamara pleaded not guilty to conspiracy to commit battery and substantial bodily harm. If found guilty, Kamara could be facing a suspension from the NFL.
