The Saints had an injury at the quarterback position on Sunday and utilized Kamara more than they usually do. He rushed 30 times for 146 yards.

The Saints saw Jameis Winston get hurt during the season , and then backup Taysom Hill dealt with injuries. New Orleans even played Ian Book at QB due to COVID issues.

Finishing 9-8 considering all the circumstances this season was an impressive accomplishment for New Orleans, even if the season did not culminate in a postseason berth.
