Saints' Derrick Gore: Signs futures contract
The Saints signed Gore to a reserve/future contract Monday.

He totaled 59 touches for 361 yards and two scores across 11 appearances with the Chiefs last year, but he wasn't elevated for any games while with New Orleans this year.

Derrick Gore: Sticking with NOLA
The Saints re-signed Gore to the practice squad Wednesday, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports.
Gore initially signed with New Orleans' practice squad last Wednesday before being cut by the team Tuesday. While the 27-year-old running back was not elevated during the team's Week 10 loss to the Steelers, he'll land back on the team's practice squad along with fellow veteran David Johnson, who was also signed Wednesday. With No. 2 running back Mark Ingram (knee) expected to remain out at least one more week and Dwayne Washington apparently relegated to a special-teams role, Gore and Johnson could jockey for a spot on the team's game-day roster during Sunday's game against the Rams.

Derrick Gore: Latches on with Saints
New Orleans signed Gore to its practice squad Wednesday, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports.
Gore played in 11 games with Kansas City last season but has yet to see any action in 2022.

With Mark Ingram (knee) expected to miss another game or two and Dwayne Washington currently the only healthy running back behind Alvin Kamara on the active roster, Gore has a chance to be elevated to provide depth at the position.

Derrick Gore: Let loose with injury settlement
The Chiefs waived Gore (thumb) from injured reserve with an injury settlement Thursday, Doug Kyed of Pro Football Focus reports.
Gore was placed on IR shortly after Kansas City's second preseason game against the Commanders last Saturday, where he likely picked up the issue that landed him on the list. Following Thursday's transaction, the 27-year-old has the ability to sign elsewhere once he demonstrates that he's past his thumb injury.

Chiefs' Derrick Gore: Placed on IR
The Chiefs placed Gore (thumb) on injured reserve Tuesday, Pete Sweeney of ArrowheadPride.com reports.
Gore presumably picked up the thumb injury during Saturday's preseason game, but the specifics of the issue remain unclear. Barring an injury settlement, Gore will miss the remainder of the 2022 campaign. Gore was never supposed to garner a major role in Kansas City's backfield, but his absence could make it easier for Ronald Jones to make the initial 53-man roster.

Chiefs' Derrick Gore: Won't play in preseason finale
Chiefs head coach Andy Reid said Tuesday that Gore (thumb) won't play in Thursday's preseason finale against the Packers, Herbie Teope of The Kansas City Star reports.
Gore rushed five times for 11 yards across 18 offensive snaps during Saturday's preseason game against the Commanders and presumably picked up the thumb injury as well. The severity of the issue remains unclear, but it could cost him a spot on the initial 53-man roster. Clyde Edwards-Helaire remains the projected starter with Jerick McKinnon and Ronald Jones as primary backups, but rookie Isiah Pacheco has also made waves during training camp. With those four healthy, Gore will have a tough time hanging on to a spot during the final roster cuts, especially if the thumb injury remains a concern.
