New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara was held without a target for the first time in his career in the Week 4 loss to the New York Giants.

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Kenny Stills failed to haul in a pass in Sunday's overtime loss to the Giants. It was a step back for Stills after he saw three targets a week ago.
