New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara (41) leaps over Carolina Panthers cornerback Daryl Worley (26) on a 22-yard reception during the fourth quarter of an NFL football game on Sunday, Dec. 3, 2017, at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome in New Orleans, La. The Saints won 31-21.

The New Orleans Saints cleared the deck for Mark Ingram and Alvin Kamara, who are now sharing snaps at an almost equal rate as they tear through the NFL.
Kamara took 37 snaps against the Panthers, and Ingram took 36 out of the offense's 64 snaps — and yes, that means the Saints have both running backs on the field together a handful of times per game.
