From the episode

Kendra Miller probably has more juice because Kamara is kind of washed... the Saints have run the most plays this season. The Saints have 222 plays, which is 60 more plays than Tennessee.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalValue

Kamara considered washed; Saints volume alone insufficient to justify usage.

Kamara is described as 'kind of washed' and is being considered only as a one or two week stop gap option at running back, despite the Saints having run 222 plays through three weeks—60 more than Tennessee—which is a huge volume advantage that alone should make him more attractive if he were healthy or in form.
