Entering his third season in the NFL, this will be Kamara’s first as the clear RB1 with Mark Ingram now in Baltimore. With that being said, don’t expect his workload to jump drastically. When Ingram was suspended for the first four games of 2018, Kamara averaged 22.8 touches per game, compared to his average of 16.7 per game the rest of the season with Ingram active. While being very productive and carrying a lot of the offense through that four game stretch, he looked visibly worn out heading in to the team’s Week 6 bye. He has proven that he’s capable to shoulder the load when called upon, but it would come as a surprise to see that be the case on a week to week basis in 2019. Regardless, his ability to be electric each and every time he touches the ball will be paramount as the Saints gear up for another run at the Super Bowl.
