The Saints have been looking for something at running back since training camp got underway. With Javorius Allen being sent to IR, the Saints moved on former Tulane back Rob Kelley. On Saturday, the Saints moved again, sending “Fat Rob” Kelley back out into free agency and bringing in former Falcons and Buccaneers running back Jacquizz Rodgers.
There’s still no word on the reason for Javorius Allen being sent to IR. But in his absence, the Saints have been going hard at the hunt for a Kamara-like back. That’s something Javorius Allen wasn’t.
