Saints' Devin Neal: Logs 17 touches Week 13
Neal accrued 14 rushes for 47 yards and reeled in all three targets for 22 yards during Sunday's 21-17 loss against the Dolphins.
Neal handled the bulk of the Saints' carries en route to career highs in rushing attempts and yards. The rookie served in the top role in the absence of RB1 Alvin Kamara, who was inactive after suffering an MCL sprain during last week's loss to Atlanta. Neal didn't end uph having to truly split work out of the backfield, as the only other two running backs on the roster, Evan Hull and Audric Estime, logged five and zero carries, respectively. Meanwhile, Taysom Hill recorded just one rushing attempt as the change-of-pace dual-threat QB. With Kamara expected to miss more time moving forward, Neal seems set for moderate usage as the Saints' No. 1 running back for the time being. The Saints face the Buccaneers on the road in Week 14.

Saints' Devin Neal: Cleared to play, should start
Neal (ankle) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against Miami, setting him up as the likely starter in place of Alvin Kamara (knee).
Kamara didn't practice at all this week and could miss time beyond Sunday, although Saints head coach Kellen Moore said the 30-year-old won't be placed on injured reserve, Mike Triplett of NewOrleans.Football reports. Neal played 86 percent of snaps after Kamara's early departure last week, but that was with no other running backs active for a loss to the Falcons. This week, the Saints likely will have three RBs available, with Neal joined by Audric Estime, Evan Hull and/or Ian Wheeler (all currently on the practice squad). Neal figures to get most of the snaps and touches, but it won't necessarily be an every-down role again, and Taysom Hill also will get some of the carries.

Saints' Devin Neal: Another limited practice
Neal (ankle) was limited in Thursday's practice, Ross Jackson of WWL Louisiana reports.
Neal has now logged back-to-back limited practices since playing a season-high 59 offensive snaps Week 12 versus the Falcons, a contest that saw Alvin Kamara (knee/ankle) spend the entire second half on the sideline due to an MCL sprain. Kamara's injury paved the way for Neal rush seven times for 18 yards and secure five of seven targets for 43 yards, and he's now missed back-to-back practices and appears to be trending in the wrong direction for Sunday's game against the Dolphins. That may also be the case for No. 1 wideout Chris Olave (back), who missed practice Thursday due to an injury he sustained Wednesday.

Saints' Devin Neal: Limited due to ankle injury
Neal was a limited practice participant Wednesday due to a knee injury, Ross Jackson of WWL Louisiana reports.
Neal played 86 percent of snaps over the final three quarters of Sunday's 24-10 loss to the Falcons, filling in for Alvin Kamara (knee) on a day when the Saints had just two RBs active. Neal's ability to practice Wednesday, even in a limited capacity, suggests he's on track to play this Sunday against the Dolphins, likely filling in for Kamara as the starter. Audric Estime and Evan Hull are the other running backs on the 53-man roster, and Taysom Hill provides another form of competition for carries.

Saints' Devin Neal: Steps in for injured starter Sunday
Neal rushed seven times for 18 yards while catching five of seven targets for 43 yards in Sunday's 24-10 loss to the Falcons.
Starting tailback Alvin Kamara (knee) was forced out of Sunday's contest in the first half and did not return. Neal -- who has been operating as the Saints' No. 2 option due to Kendre Miller (knee) being on IR -- took over lead-back duties and finished with 61 yards from scrimmage on 14 combined touches. The 21-year-old Neal did most of his damage as a receiver with the Saints playing from behind right out of the gate. The sixth-round rookie could find himself in a favorable fantasy situation as New Orleans' starter in Week 13 if Kamara's injury forces him to miss next Sunday's tilt against Miami. Neal is worth a speculative add until more clarification on Kamara's injury rolls out during the upcoming practice week.

Saints' Devin Neal: Accrues seven touches Sunday
Neal tallied four rushes for 22 yards and gathered in all three targets for nine yards during Sunday's 17-7 win against the Panthers.
Neal operated as the Saints' RB2 behind Alvin Kamara for the second week in a row. The Saints' offense bounced back after last week's dreadful performance in a loss to the Rams, and Kamara powered the running game with a season-high 22 carries for 83 yards. Neal hasn't seen much usage over the last two games, as Taysom Hill has continued to cycle in as a rushing quarterback in short-yardage and goal-line situations. The 22-year-old Neal's next opportunity will come after the Saints' Week 11 bye, when they face the Falcons on Sunday, Nov. 23.

Saints' Devin Neal: Gets four touches Week 9
Neal accrued three carries for 11 yards and caught his only target for one yard during Sunday's 34-10 loss to the Rams.
Neal had only three fewer carries than RB1 Alvin Kamara, who was stymied for a season-low 14 rushing yards. Meanwhile, do-it-all tight end Taysom Hill finished with a team-high 30 rushing yards on four carries. New Orleans got dominated in just about every phase, leaving rookie quarterback Tyler Shough to attempt 24 passes compared to just 14 rushing attempts as a team. It's unclear how the rushing attempts would have been split up if there was a more normal game script for the Saints' offense. New Orleans will next play against the Panthers in Week 10 next Sunday.

Saints' Devin Neal: Ready for Week 9 action
Neal (ankle) doesn't have a designation for Sunday's game at the Rams, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.
Meanwhile, No. 1 RB Alvin Kamara is listed as questionable due to his own ankle injury, but coach Kellen Moore told Jeff Nowak of WWL New Orleans that the ninth-year pro is trending in the right direction entering the weekend. Considering Neal practiced fully Friday while Kamara remained limited, the former could be poised for a bump in snaps Sunday if the Saints opt to take it easy on the veteran back. Neal, a rookie sixth-round pick, has three carries for 10 yards and three catches (on three targets) for 11 yards in four appearances this season.

Saints' Devin Neal: Remains limited at practice
Neal (ankle) practiced in a limited fashion Thursday, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.
Neal maintained his activity level from Wednesday as he tends to an ankle injury. No. 1 RB Alvin Kamara also is operating with a cap on his reps this week due to a lingering ankle issue, but there's been no indication that either player is in danger of sitting out Sunday's game at the Rams. In Week 8 against the Buccaneers, Neal took over the No. 2 role following Kendre Miller's torn ACL, logging a 46 percent snap share and netting 11 yards on his three catches. Meanwhile, Kamara handled 51 percent of the plays on his way to 45 yards from scrimmage on eight touches.

Saints' Devin Neal: Tending to ankle issue
Neal was limited at Wednesday's practice due to an ankle injury.
No. 1 RB Alvin Kamara also is dealing with an ankle issue, but Neal's concern is a new one. In his first game acting as the No. 2 back in place of Kendre Miller (torn ACL) this past Sunday against the Buccaneers, Neal played 46 percent of the snaps, didn't see a carry and tallied three catches (on three targets) for 11 yards, while Kamara logged a 51 percent snap share and notched 45 yards from scrimmage on eight touches. Such a breakdown of work may be the norm between Kamara and Neal moving forward, but with injuries in tow for both players, their statuses will be monitored as the week goes on to get a sense of their odds to be available Sunday at the Rams.

Saints' Devin Neal: Logs three touches Week 8
Neal had zero carries and hauled in all three of his targets for 11 yards during Sunday's 23-3 loss against Tampa Bay.
The rookie sixth-rounder served as the Saints' RB2 with Kendre Miller out for the season after suffering a torn ACL in Week 7. New Orleans benched starting quarterback Spencer Rattler for rookie Tyler Shough late in the third quarter, and the offense abandoned the running game with just 15 carries as a team. Neal still played 46 percent of offensive snaps while operating behind Alvin Kamara, who only played 51 percent of offensive snaps. Neal will look for more rushing opportunities as New Orleans' offense looks to right the ship Week 8 versus the Rams.
