Kamara signed two-year contract extension

By John DeShazier - New Orleans Saints

Of the many superlatives are attributable to Alvin Kamara , honesty ranks high on the list, if not highest.

So it wasn't much of a surprise that Tuesday, the best running back in New Orleans Saints history, signed a two-year contract extension that should assure that the eight-year veteran finishes his NFL career where it began, as a Saint.

Because time and again, Kamara has stated that very intention.

"I think I've said it so many times: I want to be here, wouldn't want to be anywhere else – these fans, this organization," Kamara said Wednesday. "My career here, it's the icing on the cake to be able to say that I won't really have to go anywhere else to play football, just leave it all here."

What Kamara already has banked as a Saint is impressive: He's the franchise all-time leader in touchdowns (85), rushing touchdowns (60), all-purpose yards (11,396) and yards from scrimmage (10,738), and is second all-time in rushing yards (6,267, trailing Mark Ingram II's 6,500). ..

Some key players like Chris Olave returning from injury will provide some hope in this week’s game, and the Saints certainly need all the help, and hope, they can get.

The Saints have been killed by their opponents' running games during their 5-game losing streak, but against the Bolts, they need to fight fire...

As the New Orleans Saints prepare to head west for a matchup with the Los Angeles Chargers, the team looks to be getting healthier as multiple key players return to practice.

After a season ending injury to Paulson Adebo last week, rookie Kool-Aid McKinstry is stepping into a starter role for the Black and Gold sooner than anyone expected.

Derek Carr looks to be out for a third straight game following an oblique injury suffered against Kansas City, meaning that rookie Spencer Rattler will continue to lead this offense.

The New Orleans Saints will travel to LA to face off with the Los Angeles Chargers this Sunday afternoon. Under new head coach, Jim Harbaugh, the Chargers have started to find their identity on offense, which is running the football. The Chargers currently rank 26th in the league in pass play percentage, throwing the football about 51% of the time.

This new-look Chargers offense will take on a Saints defense that has really struggled the last few weeks. In their last four games, the Saints have given up 26, 26, 33 and 51 points to their opponents for an average of 34 points per game...

If you were looking forward to the Andy Dalton revenge game next week, I’m sorry to disappoint you. The Carolina Panthers are returning to Bryce Young as the starter for at least the Week 8 game against the Denver Broncos. That means when the New Orleans Saints make the journey to Carolina they’ll take on Young yet again.

Dalton was involved in a car crash earlier this week. Everyone involved walked away safely, but Dalton sprained his thumb in the crash. Insert Bryce Young.

Dave Canales benched Young early in the season. It didn’t take the first year head coach long to give up on the...

Just two members of the New Orleans Saints didn’t practice on Wednesday, according to the first Week 8 injury report. Dennis Allen’s team is getting healthier, but it may be too little, too late. That’s what we’ll be looking to find out against the Los Angeles Chargers this Sunday.

Starting quarterback Derek Carr (oblique) is probably another week away from returning to the field. Backup left guard Nick Saldiveri (shoulder), thrust into the starting lineup after attrition wore down the options ahead of him, also sat out Wednesday’s practice but he’s expected back soon.
