We know he is going to get used as a receiver, right? Just going back two weeks ago, the man did have six targets out of the backfield. Tyler Shuck is just dropping back to pass more than any other quarterback in the NFL this moment. And lastly, this matchup against the Falcons is really strong in which the New Orleans Saints project to be a borderline top five NFL offense this week.

STACKED’s take

NeutralProjection

Receiving upside in strong matchup, but committee role limits ceiling.

Mr. James Cook is starting Alvin Kamara this week despite having no desire to do so, citing poor running back depth on his roster. Kamara will get used as a receiver (six targets out of backfield two weeks ago); Tyler Shuck is dropping back to pass more than any other NFL quarterback; matchup against Falcons is strong with Saints projecting as borderline top-five offense. In full PPR, expect running back by committee with Miller involved; realistic stat line projection is six carries for 28 rushing yards, six receptions for 34 receiving yards (12 points) plus touchdown upside. Cook doesn't think you should be excited about Kamara but is starting him due to lack of depth.
