Jordan Howard News
The New Orleans Saints cut running backs Jordan Howard and Derrick Gore from their roster on Tuesday. The team has been without veteran Mark Ingram II for the past two games, so these transactions could indicate he is close to returning. Ingram was expected to miss three to four weeks from the injury he suffered on October 30th, meaning he's nearing the earlier part of that timeline. Neither Howard nor Gore has made an impact this season. Howard has only one carry for one yard, while Gore has yet to touch the ball in 2022. Fantasy managers could look to stash Ingram II in case anything happens to Alvin Kamara down the stretch.
The New Orleans Saints elevated running back Jordan Howard, wide receiver Kevin White and defensive back PJ Williams from the practice squad to the active roster in time for the Monday night game against the Baltimore Ravens. With Mark Ingram II (knee) sidelined multiple weeks, Howard should see some real offensive snaps as the No. 2/3 behind Alvin Kamara in the Saints backfield. The 28-year-old could be worth a deep-league pickup as Kamara's handcuff until Ingram returns from his knee injury. The Saints will be without receiver Jarvis Landry (ankle) another week, and Michael Thomas (toe) is out for the year, so White will hope to pick up snaps behind Chris Olave, Tre'Quan Smith and Marquez Callaway on Monday.
Free-agent running back Jordan Howard worked out with the Steelers on Friday. The veteran began his career in Chicago, playing his first three seasons with the Bears and compiling 3,370 rushing yards and 24 touchdowns off nearly 800 carries. However, his production has fizzled after he was traded to Philadelphia ahead of the 2019-20 campaign. Nevertheless, with Najee Harris maintaining a firm grasp on the No. 1 spot on the depth chart, Howard likely won't offer much to fantasy managers if he's fortunate enough to earn a place on the roster this season.
