Saints RB Ty Chandler (knee) to miss season

Pro Football Talk

yesterday · 5:24 PM EDT

Saints running back Ty Chandler will miss the entire season with a knee injury, coach Kellen Moore confirmed Tuesday.

Chandler was injured during the preseason game against the Rams.

Fantasy Impact:

With Kamara sidelined with an MCL sprain and Neal dealing with a hamstring injury, the Saints traded for running back White this week, the story pointed out. We reported earlier that Miller said he is ready to take on a bigger role this season and he very well may have to, at least early on in the season.

Saints RB Kendre Miller expects bigger role

NOF on X

yesterday · 8:53 AM EDT

Saints running back Kendre Miller said he expects a bigger role with Alvin Kamara down.

Related plyers: Travis Etienne, Devin Neal, Ty Chandler

Fantasy Impact:

Miller filled in early in the season last year, getting double-digit carries in weeks four and five, producing 106 yards and a TD on those 21 carries. Miller would get hurt and give way to Neal who also needed to carry the load later in the season before getting hurt himself. Fast forward to today, and with Kamara scheduled to miss some time, and reports Monday that Chandler may have suffered a significant injury, the Saints are suddenly shorthanded at RB. Etienne is the clear starter, but Miller and Neal could both see bigger roles, at least until Kamara can return to the lineup. It's always time to pay attention when the backup RBs are another injury away from seeing even more time and that's the case with both Miller and Neal.

Saints RB Ty Chandler feared to have suffered serious knee injury

RB Ty Chandler suffered a knee injury against the Rams that is feared to be serious, per source. Going through the process now, but expectation is that he will be down for a while.

Related players: Travis Etienne, Alvin Kamara, Kendre Miller, Devin Neal

Fantasy Impact:

Not good news for Chandler who was always a capable fantasy fill-in back with the Vikings before coming to the Saints. With Kamara now banged up, Chandler was possibly in the mix with Miller and Neal behind Etienne.

Saints RB Alvin Kamara (knee) expected to miss 4-6 weeks

Reuters

Aug 19 · 3:26 PM EDT

Saints running back Alvin Kamara is expected to miss 4-6 weeks with a sprained MCL. Kamara, 31, went down with ‌a knee injury during Tuesday's joint practice with the Dallas Cowboys. Initial tests confirmed he avoided a season-ending injury.

Related Players: Travis Etienne

Fantasy Impact:

Kamara had already been projected far behind Etienne, but this injury further solidifies Etienne’s early-season workload and removes some receiving competition from the backfield. Kamara is now difficult to justify at his current ADP unless his recovery progresses faster than expected.
