Saints RB room is running on fumes

New Orleans is digging deep at running back. Per Adam Schefter, with Devin Neal out this week and Alvin Kamara dealing with ankle/knee injuries, the Saints are signing veteran RB Nyheim Hines to the practice squad. What makes this notable is who Hines is right now: he’s still working his way back from the 2023 jet ski accident that caused major knee damage and essentially wiped out his last couple seasons. If Kamara can’t go, or can’t handle a full workload, this is a “break glass in case of emergency” move—with the added upside that Hines can give you juice as a pass-catcher/space player if he’s anywhere close to himself. #Saints #NFL #AlvinKamara #NyheimHines #NFLNews #RunningBack #Week16
