"Kendre Miller's Return Energizes Saints for Showdown Against Packers"

New Orleans Saints quarterback Derek Carr is excited to see rookie running back Kendre Miller's physicality and violence on display in his regular season debut against the Green Bay Packers. Carr believes that Miller's aggressive running style will be a valuable asset for the team, and a strong performance could earn him more playing time even after Alvin Kamara returns from suspension.

Saints RB Kendre Miller's Knee Injury: Optimistic for Week 1 Return

New Orleans Saints rookie running back Kendre Miller is not expected to miss significant time after spraining his knee in a preseason game against the Kansas City Chiefs. The injury is not considered severe, and Miller could be ready for the start of the regular season. He is currently the third-string running back behind Alvin Kamara and Jamaal Williams, but with Kamara serving a suspension for the first three games, Miller would likely assume the backup role if he is healthy. The Saints may look to add running back depth until Miller returns.

Kendre Miller ready to challenge Alvin Kamara for Saints' RB position.

New Orleans Saints rookie running back Kendre Miller believes he can handle a receiving role similar to Alvin Kamara's, despite being underused as a receiver in college. Miller, who was mostly deployed as a first- and second-down runner for TCU, has been working on his receiving skills with the Saints. Head coach Dennis Allen likes Miller's downhill running style, good feet, contact balance, and speed. However, Miller has yet to be cleared for action following an MCL injury he suffered that kept him out of TCU's National Championship Game loss to Georgia.
