MARK INGRAM II NEWS

Injures knee Sunday Ingram was forced out of Sunday's game against the Raiders with a knee injury.

Impact Prior to his exit from the contest, Ingram caught his only target for two yards. In his absence, top back Alvin Kamara figures to be busy, while the versatile Taysom Hill could see added touches in New Orleans' Week 8 offense.

Inefficient in primetime Ingram rushed four times for six yards while securing all three of his targets for 16 yards during the Saints' 42-34 loss to the Cardinals on Thursday.

Impact Ingram matched his lowest total of the season with four carries during Thursday's matchup, and he was held under 10 rushing yards for the first time this year. While he slightly propped up his fantasy results with an 11-yard reception late in the fourth quarter, it was a discouraging performance from the 32-year-old after he racked up 57 yards from scrimmage last week. The Saints face another tough run defense in the Raiders in Week 8.

Will play Thursday Ingram (knee) doesn't have a designation for Thursday's contest at Arizona.

Impact Despite being listed as a limited practice participant Monday through Wednesday by a knee issue, Ingram will be available to the Saints offense Week 7, as he has been for all six games on the campaign. Overall, he's averaging nine touches for 36.3 yards from scrimmage per game while scoring one touchdown, but for a third straight outing Ingram will be playing second fiddle to Alvin Kamara out of the backfield.

Reps capped in practice Ingram (knee) was a limited participant in Tuesday's practice.

Impact Ingram is tending to the knee issue after logging nine carries for 46 yards to go with an 11-yard reception while playing 24 snaps in Sunday's 30-26 loss to the Bengals. The Saints are facing a quick turnaround for Week 7 with a Thursday night game in Arizona, but Ingram's ability to take the field in some capacity Tuesday bodes well for his chances of being available as the top complementary option to top back Alvin Kamara.

OCTOBER 18, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Dealing with knee issue Ingram (knee) was listed as limited on Monday's estimated practice report.

Impact Ingram is among four Saints skill-position players to take the field for all six contests on the campaign, with a range of 22 to 47 percent of the offensive snaps and five to 13 touches per game based on the available personnel on a weekly basis. Overall, he's averaging a shade over 4.0 yards per carry and scored one TD, but he's played second fiddle to Alvin Kamara the last two games. Now, Ingram is tending to a knee issue, so his status will be one to monitor ahead of Thursday's road matchup with the Cardinals.

Saints offense stalls as New Orleans loses late lead

Andy Dalton had an opportunity to stake a stronger claim on the New Orleans’ starting quarterback job

OCTOBER 16, 2022 • Associated Press

Gains 57 yards on 10 touches Ingram rushed nine times for 46 yards and caught one of two targets for 11 yards in Sunday's 30-26 loss to Cincinnati.

Impact Ingram was able to find more success on the ground Sunday after struggling with a similar workload against Seattle last week. The results have been too inconsistent for the veteran through six weeks, and starter Alvin Kamara (25 touches for 124 yards) appears to be healthy and productive after a slow start to the campaign. Ingram would only be worth starting in Week 7 if Kamara was somehow unavailable with a short turnaround against the Cardinals on Thursday Night Football.

Saints win begs questions about Hill, Dalton going forward

Saints coach Dennis Allen says Taysom Hill's role should remain similar to what it was during New Orleans' victory over Seattle

OCTOBER 10, 2022 • Associated Press

Makes little of nine carries Ingram rushed the ball nine times for 16 yards in Sunday's 39-32 win over the Seahawks.

Impact Ingram slipped down the depth chart due to the return of Alvin Kamara (ribs). However, he was also overshadowed by Taysom Hill's four-touchdown effort. As a result of Hill's success, Ingram's role in the Saints' offense could decrease, particularly because Ingram has totaled only 64 rushing yards across his last 24 carries.

OCTOBER 10, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Overcomes injury scare Ingram recorded 10 carries for 30 yards in Sunday's 28-25 loss to the Vikings. He added three receptions for 13 yards.

Impact Ingram missed a portion of the second half and was spotted in the injury tent prior to spending time in the locker room, per Erin Summers of Bally Sports New Orleans . However, he managed to return to force a near-even split of carries with Latavius Murray in the absence of Alvin Kamara (ribs). Even barring injury, the Saints appear to be hesitant to turn the backfield over entirely to Ingram, as he has tallied 10 carries in each of the games that Kamara has missed this season.

OCTOBER 2, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Set for expanded role Sunday Ingram is in line for an expanded workload Sunday with Alvin Kamara (ribs) inactive, Mike Triplett of NewOrleans.Football reports.

Impact As Triplett notes, Latavius Murray is up from the practice squad and also available to help fill in for Kamara, while the Saints will also use Dwayne Washington versus Minnesota. That said, look for Ingram to see enough work Sunday to represent a Week 4 alternative for those rostering Kamara or simply looking for some short-term backfield help.

Finds end zone in Week 3 loss Ingram rushed five times for 18 yards and a touchdown but wasn't targeted in Sunday's 22-14 loss to Carolina.

Impact Ingram returned to a complementary role with Alvin Kamara back from a rib injury, but that role still included goal-line work, which Ingram made the most of in the third quarter by getting the Saints on the board with a five-yard touchdown run. With only five touches in each of the two games in which Kamara has played this season, Ingram will likely see limited volume in Week 4 against the Vikings in London barring a setback for the lead back.

Solid in expanded role Sunday Ingram (ankle) rushed 10 times for 60 yards and brought in both targets for three yards in the Saints' 20-10 loss to the Buccaneers on Sunday. He also lost a fumble.

Impact The veteran back comfortably led the Saints in rushing with an expanded role courtesy of Alvin Kamara's (ribs) absence, but game script eventually limited his opportunities late. A lost fumble at the Buccaneers' nine-yard line late in the third quarter was also obviously a back-breaking miscue, but Ingram looked refreshingly effective against what is usually one of the stingiest run defenses in the league when he had the ball in his hands. Ingram is likely to revert back to a more modest role in a Week 3 road battle versus the Panthers if Kamara is healthy enough to suit up.

Playing Sunday Ingram (ankle) is listed as active Sunday versus the Buccaneers, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.

Impact Meanwhile, Alvin Kamara (ribs) isn't available, meaning Ingram, Dwayne Washington (hamstring) and Tony Jones are the Saints' available running backs Week 2. Under normal circumstances, Ingram would be in line for significant touches in Kamara's absence, but both he and Washington were limited in practice Wednesday through Friday. As a result, Jones could get a larger share of the workload if Ingram isn't ready for a full allotment of carries and targets.

SEPTEMBER 18, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Expected to play Sunday Ingram (ankle) is listed as questionable but is expected to play Sunday against the Buccaneers, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Impact Ingram logged limited practices throughout the week, but it appears he'll be able to suit up Sunday. The veteran running back will be in line for a hefty workload with Alvin Kamara (ribs) expected to be sidelined, per Schefter.
