Kamara sidelined with MCL sprain; unlikely for Week 1 start.

Kamara finished 2025 with career-low 471 yards and one touchdown, missing six games due to an MCL sprain. Heading into 2026, he is currently dealing with an MCL sprain and is not likely to play Week 1, with Travis Etienne expected to start at running back.
