It was on my player page on my sleeper app. I have Taysom but they play Monday night, and I'm desperately trying not to have to play Mark Andrews at TE. "Fractures" according to Katherine Terrell of ESPN.

The upshot is that Kamara is older, is getting a lot of work and he might not be able to sustain it without his efficiency dropping off or being able to stay healthy.
I imagine they'd love to cut down on Kamara's workload with the playoffs in mind. Coming into the season, the thought was that Miller would emerge as the 1A/1B alongside Alvin, but Miller's propensity for getting hurt to the dismay of Allen dashed those hopes for the time being. All depends on whether Allen has developed any faith in Kendre going forward.
The upshot is that Hill could be out a while, and Miller could be the only RB in that building with any talent left if Kamara got dinged. It's not hard imagining him running with the job down the stretch if it's just him vs Williams. If not, throw a dart at someone else in a few weeks
I'm sure a big part of it was tough love by Allen, but it won't get him on the field much regardless if he keeps getting nicked up.
lol, some capacity is quite the wide range of outcomes.
Tatum Bell? lol
Miller has a broad range outcomes

I can't believe this is still a thing. Just like Jermichael Finley. Find some new material.

keywords, "back in the day". Hell, we're almost to the point where some fantasy players don't even know who Tatum Bell is.lmao back in the day everything was a ploy to motivate Tatum BellI can't believe this is still a thing. Just like Jermichael Finley. Find some new material.
Next you will be telling me to Nevah bench Stephen Davis.keywords, "back in the day".

I think it's the complete opposite. If anything I was saying to forget guys like Tatum Bell who weren't really that good, or at least find new material. Don't you think "ploy to motivate Tatum Bell" has run its course? If not, then knock yourself out with it.Next you will be telling me to Nevah bench Stephen Davis.keywords, "back in the day".

I don't think the coach is in love with him, so there is that. In redraft I wouldn't waste my time. In dynasty he's rostered everywhere and his owners are praying for any life.
Meh. The head coach hates him - I feel like if kamara goes down then it becomes rbbc.
I think you got the right read on it.
Agreed - I think Allen despises him due to his propensity for getting hurt, not his ability/talent. Seems like the opportunity may be there for Miller if the coach is willing to give it to him.
IMO it is kind of silly for the coach to take that position. There have been very good players have a run of bad luck with injuries early in their career and overcame it. It borders on unfair.
Fully agree, coaches sometimes hold unfair grudges like anyone else. To be fair though, we don't know what else is going on behind the scenes. In any event, from a bird's eye view, they have morphed far away from the high powered offense they were in the first few weeks. Seem to be running Kamara into the ground and Carr is possibly in danger of missing time. Maybe Miller can be a spark on offense.
Perhaps, but the coaches remarks were probably best kept private.
Allen needs to be fired just like Saleh. He's not HC material. The gameplan and execution last night were terrible. The Saints were not playing to win, they were playing to keep it from being a blowout. Your take on Allen's thoughts about Miller are probably on point, but Miller is still only 22 and could thrive with a new staff/system.
Does Kamara ever practice on Wednesday?
Fair point - it’s possible. He seems to have been nicked up in previous weeks, but plays through it. Maybe a good role model for Kendre himself.
No

Yahoo leagues I’ll just be leaving him in my IR spot until I have to make moves next week.
In the leagues I'm in that I commish for MFL, if he is activated this week, teams must activate him this week also, because if MFL activates him this week, teams having Miller on their IR would make their roster illegal, thus requiring them to activate him.
My question was rhetorical, but thanks for confirming for the masses. Of course Kamara never practices, but he always plays. He's one of the toughest RBs in the NFL. He's already played through broken ribs this year.
Pretty sure a "hand injury" isn't going to phase him.On the field, not off it.
If I understand what you've said correctly it seems like your site has the same default setting as NFL.com. I'm confident that the setting is what otherwise renders the fewest complaints. But it's junk, I'd be more open to it if the options were something other than just an up or down. Perhaps sometime in the future they will. I really don't like the assortment of designations besides that of IR. That a player can remain in there when his team is on their bye & he wouldn't have been available to his team owner anyway is totally unacceptable!
I believe MFL allows the commissioner to prevent a lineup submission if there is a roster violation.
That's excellent & obliterates everything I said. Unfortunately, @nfl.com that's not the case at all as team owners can manipulate the IR spot to their advantage. Thank you for the insight!
MFL does disallow lineup submission if there is a roster violation, but if they don't submit a lineup at all, the lineup and roster is as it was the previous week and the commish has to step in and force a lineup submission and valid roster, and if that means the team has to activate a player that is no longer on IR, or remove players on a bye, then that must be done in the leagues I commish, or I will do it for them.
Same here. Was happy to let him chill on IR. Now a decision has to be made.
