  • Saints' Kendre Miller: Logs nine carries in debut

    Miller tallied nine carries for 34 yards and gathered in his only target for zero yards during Sunday's 18-17 defeat versus Green Bay.

    Miller was the second running back on the field for New Orleans during his NFL debut Sunday. After veteran Tony Jones logged the first rushing attempt on the opening drive, the third-round rookie logged three carries on the Saints' second offensive series; however, as was the case for most of the game, he never managed to make any significant impact. Miller wound up getting just two carries in the second half while Jones saw four rushing attempts. The pair totaled just 65 yards on 17 combined carries while swiss-army-knife Taysom Hill logged four carries of his own. With Alvin Kamara set to return from suspension Week 4 and Jamaal Williams (hamstring) still on IR until at least Week 7, Miller should slot in as New Orleans' RB2 for the next three games.

  • Saints' Kendre Miller: Pro debut on tap Sunday

    Miller will have a role out of the Saints backfield Sunday in Green Bay with Jamaal Williams (hamstring) ruled out for the game, Stacey Dales of NFL Network reports.

    A 2023 third-round pick, Miller's pro debut has been delayed by a hamstring injury that has followed him since at least Aug. 31, causing him to miss the first two contests of the season. With a trio of full practices under his belt this week, though, he's been cleared for game action. Miller and Tony Jones (12-34-2 rushing line Week 2) should serve as the focal points at running back for New Orleans on Sunday, with Kirk Merritt and/or Jordan Mims candidates to be elevated from the practice squad. Alvin Kamara's three-game suspension ends after this weekend, so Miller's workload Week 4 and beyond may depend on Williams' recovery.

  • Saints' Kendre Miller: Logs full practice Thursday

    Miller (hamstring) practiced in full Thursday, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.

    For a second consecutive day, Miller was listed as a full participant on the Saints' injury report, only on this occasion the team actually held a session Thursday. The rookie third-round pick appears to have paved the way for his pro debut Sunday at Green Bay, which could be fruitful for him with Jamaal Williams (hamstring) trending toward an absence. As for the rest of New Orleans' backfield, Alvin Kamara has one game to go in his suspension and Eno Benjamin (Achilles) is on IR, leaving Miller, Tony Jones (12-34-2 rushing line Week 2) and practice-squad members Kirk Merritt and Jordan Mims as the team's options at the position in Week 3.

  • Saints' Kendre Miller: Listed as full participant

    The Saints listed Miller (hamstring) as a full participant at Wednesday's walk-through practice, Luke Johnson of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.

    Miller could easily show up as a limited participant Thursday or Friday if the Saints hold a proper practice on one of those days, but head coach Dennis Allen told John Hendrix of SI.com on Tuesday that the rookie running back would be "full go" during Week 3 prep. Thus, Miller's listing Wednesday is a good enough sign that he's closing in on his professional debut, especially considering that Alvin Kamara has one game left to serve for his suspension and Jamaal Williams may miss some time due to a hamstring injury. Ultimately, Friday's injury report will determine whether or not Miller has a designation ahead of Sunday's visit to Green Bay.

  • Saints' Kendre Miller: Should be full go at practice

    Head coach Dennis Allen expects Miller (hamstring) to be a "full go" at practice this week, John Hendrix of SI.com reports.

    With Jamaal Williams (hamstring) unlikely to play Week 3, and Alvin Kamara (suspension) still one game away from returning, the Saints will be thin at running back when they head to Green Bay on Sunday. Miller could be in line for a significant workload should Allen's optimism ring true regarding his status. New Orleans relied on Tony Jones and packages surrounding the versatile Taysom Hill for a rushing threat in Monday's victory over the Panthers, however, and both figure to be in the mix in Week 3. More clarity on MIller's health will be provided by the team's first practice report of the week Wednesday.
