Saints' Mark Ingram (knee) likely done for season
New Orleans Saints running back Mark Ingram (knee) is likely done for the season, per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.
What It Means:
Ingram is expected to miss 4-6 weeks and the Saints will likely be officially eliminated from playoff contention by then, so it would be a surprise to see him return this season. Dwayne Washington, David Johnson, and Derrick Gore are the other running backs on the roster behind Alvin Kamara, but Taysom Hill may wind up being the one to see more carries consistently.
Ingram averaged 8.0 opportunities and 4.2 FanDuel points across 10 games this season. Among the 53 backs with at least 50 carries, Ingram is fourth-worst and Kamara is second-worst in Rushing Net Expected Points per attempt.
