Fantasy Life Articles on Alvin Kamara
From the article
With Travis Etienne sidelined, Kamara operated as the lead running back for the Saints, out-touching Kendre Miller 12-8. Kamara logged 41% of the snaps... We know Brian Flores and the Vikings are going to blitz like crazy, currently doing so on 67.3% of dropbacks, easily the highest rate in football.
STACKED’s take
Kamara leads Saints backfield with 12 touches; faces Vikings' league-high 67.3% blitz rate in Week 5.
With Travis Etienne sidelined, Kamara operated as the lead running back for the Saints, out-touching Kendre Miller 12-8 and logging 41% of snaps (though he left briefly in the third quarter). He caught five passes in the game and should remain busy in the passing game against Minnesota. The Vikings blitz on 67.3% of dropbacks (highest rate in football) and play heavy zone coverage (particularly Cover-2), which screams check-downs to Kamara given the Saints' offensive line issues. Over the past two seasons, Kamara has been targeted on 23% of his routes against the blitz, positioning him to see plenty of targets as Tyler Shough's safety valve.
