New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara is dealing with a groin injury sustained in Week 15, raising questions about his availability for the remainder of the season. With the Saints unlikely to make the playoffs, there is speculation about whether the team will opt to shut him down to prevent further injury.

Despite the injury, Kamara is on the verge of reaching 1,000 rushing yards for the first time in his career, and reports suggest that the injury is not serious. Interim head coach Darren Rizzi has not indicated any plans to shut him down, and there is a possibility he could play in Week 16.
