With the Saints signing Travis Etienne to a lucrative four-year contract in free agency to serve as the new starting running back, questions have arisen about whether Kamara will be on the roster in 2026. New Orleans also has Devin Neal and Kendre Miller in the backfield, who are solid depth pieces. Though Kamara has already stated that he wants to remain with the Saints for the upcoming campaign, general manager Mickey Loomis finally broke his silence on the five-time Pro Bowl running back's standing in New Orleans.

Loomis noncommittal on Kamara's future with Saints On Monday, Loomis stated that the team is still trying to figure out how Kamara fits on the roster, meaning there's a chance the veteran back is on a new team in 2026. "Weโ€™re just trying to see how heโ€™s gonna fit on our roster. Obviously, thereโ€™s a resource management element.

Weโ€™ll get to that over the next week or two," Loomis said via Luke Johnson of The New Orleans Times-Picayune. A running back duo of Etienne and Kamara would be electric for the Saints. Though Kamara has been slowing down in recent years, he's still a savvy and experienced player who can contribute in the receiving game.
