Saints' Kamara Returns to Practice While Jordan Is Ruled Out for Sunday's Opener at Detroit

Alvin Kamara returned to limited practice, while coach Kellen Moore said Cam Jordan will miss the opener because of a hamstring injury.

  • On Wednesday, New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara returned to practice in limited capacity, while head coach Kellen Moore ruled defensive end Cameron Jordan out for Sunday's season opener against the Detroit Lions due to a hamstring injury.

  • The Saints view the opener against the Lions as a measuring stick; Shough, who "had a great offseason," expressed excitement to compete, positioning New Orleans to prove strength in 2026.
