Faced with a shorthanded backfield, New Orleans will have to rely even more on their biggest star against the Panthers.
Alvin Kamara will again almost singlehandedly lead the New Orleans Saints rushing attack as his team plays at the Carolina Panthers this Sunday. That Kamara is the team's primary offensive weapon is no surprise. Because of injuries at the position, he may also be the team's only viable option at running back.

The Saints do have two young backs on their practice squad.

Mims also adds value as a kickoff returner. With WR Rashid Shaheed out for the season, the Saints have been using Kendre Miller and Jamaal Williams in that role.
