Alvin Kamara has been a franchise cornerstone for the New Orleans Saints for nearly a decade, but the veteran running back's play has declined over the last few years, leading to questions about his future with the team.

Though Kamara has expressed interest in playing for the Saints in 2026 , it doesn't make much sense to keep him on the roster. New Orleans signed Travis Etienne to a lucrative four-year deal to be the new top running back, and also still has Kendre Miller and Devin Neal on the roster. The Saints should consider Kamara as an expendable asset, and Bleacher Report's Moe Moton has an NFC team as one of the top suitors for the 5-time Pro Bowler.

Cowboys mentioned as possible Alvin Kamara trade landing spot While discussing post June 1 trade candidates around the league, Moton floated the Dallas Cowboys as a potential landing spot for Kamara in a trade with the Saints. Dallas is set to have Javonte Williams return as their starting running back in 2026. Williams had a breakout 2025 campaign with 1,201 yards and 11 touchdowns on 4.

8 yards per carry , along with two scores through the air. The 26-year-old's play earned him a three-year extension from the Cowboys. Behind Williams, the Cowboys have Malik Davis and 2025 sixth-round pick Jaydon Blue.
