Travis Etienne news
The gist
Saints RB Travis Etienne was removed from the injury report and will play Week 3.
His backfield role is shrinking as Alvin Kamara returns, so watch his workload.
How it unfolded
- Sep 20, 2026In Kamara's first game back, Etienne carried eight times for 25 yards and caught both targets for six yards in the Saints' 24-17 win over the Ravens, adding a two-point conversion. He finished with ten touches and 31 total yards while leading Saints running backs in snap share (53.1%) and route share (33.3%).
- Sep 23, 2026Etienne was a limited practice participant due to a hamstring injury, a new addition to New Orleans' injury report; head coach Kellen Moore confirmed the limited session.
- Sep 24, 2026Etienne practiced in a limited capacity for a second straight day, per Mike Triplett of NewOrleans.Football. Fellow RB Kendre Miller did not practice because of an illness, and the Saints' injury report grew from eight players Wednesday to 10 Thursday.
