New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara went to the locker room in the third quarter against the Washington Commanders in Week 15.
The star running back exited the game and walked to the medical tent. Upon exiting the tent, he walked to the locker room.
Kamara is in the midst of an outstanding 2024 season. Earlier in the game, he reeled in a 21-yard touchdown catch and became the fourth player in NFL history with 50 rushing touchdowns and 25 receiving scores, joining Lenny Moore, Marshall Faulk and Christian McCaffrey.
Here’s the latest on the Saints running back’s status:

Shortly after his exit, the Saints announced that he was dealing with a groin injury and his return is questionable.
Kamara had rushed five times for 12 yards and led the team with four receptions for 58 yards and a touchdown before he left the game.
Saints RB depth chart
The Saints have two running backs behind Kamara on the 53-man roster.
Kendre Miller
Jamaal Williams
Kamara joins a long list of injured Saints players at the skilled positions. The veteran Williams has recently been relegated to special teams, while second-year back Kendre Miller has recently started to take on more work as Kamara’s backup.
If Kamara misses extended time, Miller is a good bet to take on the majority of work, as the Saints may want to see what they have in the 22-year-old back.
