Alvin Kamara Confident Of Playing VS Seattle Seahawks
The Saints are sweating the fitness of running back Alvin Kamara ahead of their clash against the Seahawks on Sunday.
New Orleans has lost three in a row and are struggling with injuries. Jameis Winston and Michael Thomas are questionable, as well as Alvin Kamara.
Alvin Kamara is recovering from a ‘weird’ rib injury which appears to be inhibiting him when he does play.
In those two games, Kamara has only 100 rushing yards, 19 receiving yards and zero touchdowns.

“This week I’m feeling great, healthy, ready to roll,” Kamara said Wednesday, via ESPN’s Katherine Terrell. “So, I’m going to be out there.
“It’s a weird injury,” the five-time Pro Bowler said. “There’s nothing really you can do for it. It’s one of those things you’ve got to kind of be easy with and one morning you wake up and it’s feeling terrible, the next morning you wake up and it’s feeling better. I kind of try to stay on the rehab and try to do everything I can. Obviously, there’s not too much I can do, but obviously I try to do everything I can to make it feel good and just promote and stimulate the healing.”

“The main thing for me is just being able to help the team any way I can,” Kamara said.
“Physically, if there’s a time where I feel like I can’t do that, then I can’t be out there. The last thing I want to do is negatively impact the game. Just being all the way healthy and available on Sunday, that’s my biggest thing. So that’s why, obviously last week was kind of up in the air, didn’t go.”
