BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 30% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Ingram had already earned RB2 responsibilities for New Orleans, but Alvin Kamara’s troublesome rib issue elevated the two-time Pro-Bowler into lead back duties in Week 2. Kamara remained cemented to the sideline when New Orleans hosted Tampa Bay as the 32-year-old Ingram paced the Saints with 10 rushing attempts and also led the team with 60 yards on the ground.
The 12-year veteran operated in a rotation with Tony Jones Jr. and Dwayne Washington, but that tandem combined for just six carries while being limited to 26 rushing yards.
Kamara’s status should be monitored as the week progresses, as he will immediately regain an extensive workload as New Orleans’ primary back upon his return. However, Ingram’s status as Kamara's direct backup is secure. He also attained a 33% snap share during the Saint’s season opener while performing in that capacity and there is no other runner on the team who is looming as a legitimate threat to his role.
Ingram also remains an effective insurance policy for anyone who has invested in Kamara, as he can operate as a viable flex option if Kamara is sidelined once again.
