Mark Ingram II - Page 2 - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Saints' Dennis Allen explains why Mark Ingram stepped out of bounds short of first-down marker in key spot vs. Bucs As it turns out, there was a reason Ingram didn't fight for the first down.

DECEMBER 6, 2022 • SPORTINGNEWS.COM

Inefficient in defeat Ingram totaled seven rushes for 27 yards and caught all five targets for 22 yards during Monday's 17-16 loss versus the Buccaneers.

Impact Ingram totaled double-digit touches for the first time since Week 4, as he struck a balanced workload with No. 1 running back Alvin Kamara (12 carries, two receptions). However, both running backs failed to produce any explosive runs against Tampa Bay's defense. Ingram also temporarily remained down on the field after being tackled near the sideline early in the second half, which caused him to be evaluated in the Saints' medical tent, according to John Hendrix of SI.com. While he managed to return, New Orleans coach Dennis Allen said that the veteran back injured his knee when he went out of bounds one yard shy of picking up a first down later in the fourth quarter, per Jacques Doucet of WAFB 9Sports. It's still unclear if he aggravated a previous MCL sprain that sidelined him three straight games up until Week 12. Either way, the 32-year-old Ingram will have extra time to recover during the Saints' upcoming bye Week 14.

Logs full practice Ingram (foot) was a full practice participant Friday.

Impact Ingram is set to handle his familiar role as Alvin Kamara's backup for a second straight week, after missing three games with an MCL sprain. He got four carries for 10 yards in his first game back, while Kamara had 13 touches and Hill took seven. Kamara did lose two fumbles in the game, and it's possible Ingram gets more work if the ball-security issues continue Monday night in Tampa Bay.

Dealing with foot injury Ingram (foot) was limited at practice Thursday.

Impact Ingram put an end to a three-game absence this past Sunday in San Francisco after tending to an MCL sprain, playing 30 percent of snaps on his way to four carries for 10 yards and no catches on his only target. Meanwhile, Alvin Kamara (13 touches) and tight end Taysom Hill (seven touches) got more work than Ingram out of the backfield. Ingram has exchanged the knee injury for a foot issue this week, so his status will be one to watch as the Saints continue to prep for Monday's visit to Tampa Bay.

Active in Week 12 Ingram (knee) is active for Sunday's Week 12 clash against the 49ers.

Impact The veteran running back will make his return following what was nearly a four-game absence when factoring in Ingram played only five snaps before suffering his injury in Week 8 against the Raiders. Ingram will slot back into his usual role as a complementary option behind Alvin Kamara in an unenviable matchup against a 49ers defense allowing an NFL-low 64.0 rushing yards per home game.

NOVEMBER 27, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Questionable to return this week Ingram (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the 49ers.

Impact Limited practice participation Wednesday through Friday leaves Ingram truly questionable ahead of the 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff. He missed the past three games with an MCL sprain and might only be the third rushing option behind Alvin Kamara and Taysom Hill if he plays this weekend. Ingram's replacements, Dwayne Washington and Jordan Howard, combined for five touches over the past three games.

Limited again Thursday Ingram (knee) was listed as limited on Thursday's practice report, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.

Impact Ingram appears to be closing in on his first game action since Week 8, as he's managed back-to-back capped showings this week. If he's able to gain clearance to play following a three-game absence due to a sprained MCL, it'd be fortuitous timing with the Saints' top running back Alvin Kamara unable to practice Thursday due to an illness. If Kamara is limited or out Sunday at San Francisco, Ingram would be the biggest beneficiary if he's able to ditch his injury designation.

Returns to practice Ingram (knee) returned to practice Wednesday as a limited participant.

Impact Ingram missed the past three games but may have a shot to play this Sunday against the 49ers. The matchup is a tough one on paper, and Taysom Hill may be the No. 2 rushing threat behind Alvin Kamara more so than Ingram, the nominal No. 2 running back. Ingram isn't likely to offer much value this season without Kamara missing time.

Out another week Ingram (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Rams.

Impact With Ingram missing a third straight game, the Saints are left with Dwayne Washington and Jordan Howard behind Alvin Kamara, who played 88 and 79 percent of snaps the past two weeks. Ingram hasn't practiced since suffering a Grade 2 MCL sprain in a Week 8 loss to the Raiders.

NOVEMBER 18, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Idle for another practice Ingram (knee) wasn't present for Thursday's practice, Terrin Waack of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.

Impact Ingram hasn't practiced in any fashion since being diagnosed with a Grade 2 MCL sprain of his knee following the Saints' Week 8 win over the Raiders. Unless he makes a surprise appearance at practice Friday as a limited or full participant, Ingram will likely be ruled out for a third straight game heading into the weekend. Dwayne Washington is currently the next man up at running back behind starter Alvin Kamara, but if Ingram is sidelined for Sunday's game against the Rams, David Johnson could be elevated from the practice squad to handle the team's No. 2 role this weekend.

NOVEMBER 17, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Not ready for practice Ingram (knee) didn't practice Wednesday, Luke Johnson of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.

Impact Ingram missed the last two games and likely will miss another week or two, though he hasn't yet been ruled out for this Sunday's game against the Rams. Alvin Kamara has played nearly all the running back snaps in Ingram's absence, though it hasn't amounted to much with the Saints struggling to hold possession in two straight games.

NOVEMBER 16, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Officially out for Week 10 Ingram (knee) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game in Pittsburgh, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Given that Ingram was diagnosed with an MCL sprain after exiting the Saints' Oct. 30 win over the Raiders and was facing an expected recovery timetable of 3-to-4 weeks, he was never considered likely to miss fewer than one game due to the injury. After Ingram failed to practice in any fashion this week, it's thus no surprise that he'll be sidelined for a second consecutive game. Dwayne Washington will likely step in as the Saints' No. 2 running back in Ingram's stead, with starter Alvin Kamara presumably taking on an even larger workload than usual as a result.

NOVEMBER 11, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Absent from practice Ingram (knee) wasn't spotted at the Saints' practice session Thursday, Terrin Waack of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.

Impact The Saints estimated Ingram as a non-participant during Wednesday's walk-through session, and it looks as though he'll maintain that listing when the team holds a more formal practice Thursday. Given that he suffered an MCL sprain in the Saints' Week 8 win over the Raiders that is expected to sideline him multiple weeks, Ingram's lack of practice activity comes as little surprise. He'll most likely be officially ruled out for Sunday's game in Pittsburgh at the conclusion of Friday's practice.

NOVEMBER 10, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Not practicing Ingram (knee) is listed as a non-participant on Wednesday's practice report, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.

Impact The backup running back missed Monday's loss to the Ravens and likely will be out for at least another game or two after suffering an MCL sprain Oct. 30. The Saints used Dwayne Washington as their No. 2 RB with Ingram out Monday night, though Washington didn't get many chances in a game where Baltimore dominated possession and Alvin Kamara was able to play 88 percent of offensive snaps.

Out for Monday Ingram (knee) won't play Monday against the Ravens, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.

Impact Ingram is expected to miss 3-to-4 weeks after spraining his MCL in last Sunday's win. While Dwayne Washington might see more time spelling Alvin Kamara, it's also possible the team will call up long-time veteran Jordan Howard, who could be a good candidate for the similar types of carries that Ingram got to begin the year.

Likely to miss time with MCL sprain Ingram (knee) suffered an MCL sprain during Sunday's blowout win over the Raiders and is expected to miss 3-to-4 weeks, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Impact Ingram could be a candidate to land on IR for a minimum of four games, depending on the Saints' internal estimates of his return timetable. That could provide Dwayne Washington with an opportunity to step into the No. 2 running back spot behind Alvin Kamara, though perhaps the true beneficiary of increased opportunities would be Taysom Hill, who saw a season-high 10 carries for 61 yards versus Las Vegas.
