Alvin Kamara Fantasy

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara pled not guilty to conspiracy to commit battery (a misdemeanor) and substantial bodily harm (felony) at a courthouse in Nevada. His trial is set for July 31. If he's found guilty, his discipline would likely come in the 2023 season. Kamara and three others were indicted in February on a felony charge of battery with substantial harm and a gross misdemeanor count of conspiracy to commit battery after they were accused of attacking a man last year. Kamara's attorneys previously said that Kamara was "defending himself and others at the time of the incident." The 27-year-old only accounted for four total touchdowns last year despite racking up 1,300 scrimmage yards as the Saints' leading back. With a potential suspension looming over him in 2023, though, fantasy managers should be hesitant to rely on him as their RB1.

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara was indicted on Thursday by a Clark County grand jury for an alleged beating at a Las Vegas night club early in 2022. Kamara was officially indicted on criminal charges of conspiracy to commit battery and battery resulting in substantial bodily harm. A judge set a court date for March 2. Kamara played in 2022 and had 223 carries for 897 yards and two touchdowns while adding 57 receptions for 490 additional yards and two more TDs in 15 games. With a potential suspension being handed down by the NFL for the 2023 season as well as uncertainty at the quarterback position in New Orleans, Kamara's fantasy stock is likely to fall considerably entering 2023 drafts.

New Orleans Saints veteran running back Alvin Kamara carried the ball 23 times for 107 yards in the 10-7 loss to the Carolina Panthers. Kamara added a reception for three yards on just two targets. Sunday marked just the second 100-yard rushing game of Kamara's season. The 27-year-old ran for 897 yards on the season and added 490 through the air, scoring just four total touchdowns in 2022. Kamara's declining usage in the passing game will be worth monitoring heading into the 2023 season, as well as his potential suspension status. The veteran could be headed for a decline in production, given that he will turn 28 in July.
