Kendre Miller

Williams missed Week 9 with the groin issue and Kendre Miller is back on injured reserve. Taysom Hill and Jordan Mims split the RB2 role with five carries each. Williams will serve as Alvin Kamara's backup if he's able to suit up for Week 10.

The Saints have placed RB Kendre Miller (hamstring) on IR. That ll knock him out for games against the Panthers, Falcons, Browns, and Rams. New Orleans promoted RB Jordan Mims to the active roster in a corresponding move. With Jamaal Williams also out for Sunday, Alvin Kamara will remain busy. Taysom Hill might rank second on the team in carries and presents some fantasy value in leagues where he carries TE eligibility.

The Saints suddenly find themselves in a bind at running back after Miller's move to injured reserve and backup running back Jamaal Williams' status as doubtful for Week 9. The team is left with only Alvin Kamara and fullback Adam Prentice as healthy backs on the active roster, potentially opening up additional backfield snaps for queen chess piece Taysom Hill against the Panthers. Means' absence likely thrusts recent acquisition Marquez Valdes-Scantling into meaningful snaps on the perimeter.

Jamaal Williams is listed as doubtful with a groin issue. Jordan Mims will likely be called up from the practice squad to serve as Alvin Kamara's backup this week. Mims is an interesting add in deep leagues but doesn't hold any standalone value for Week 9.

Saints RB Kendre Miller (hamstring) is out for Sunday s game vs. the Panthers. He didn t practice all week and has no timetable for return from his latest hamstring injury. New Orleans will also be without RB Jamaal Williams, who's listed as doubtful with a groin injury. The Saints figure to elevate Jordan Mims from the practice squad to serve as the No. 2 RB, but Taysom Hill might be the favorite to finish second on the team in carries.
