METAIRIE, La. – Alvin Kamara’s evolving role in the New Orleans Saints’ offense reached extreme levels last week.
The running back's 26 carries against the New York Giants set a career high (one week after he setting a high with 24 against the New England Patriots).
Meanwhile, his zero passing targets marked a career first. For the season, Kamara has 10 catches -- less than Tennessee Titans bruiser, and NFL-leading rusher, Derrick Henry -- after catching at least 81 in each of his first four seasons.
