The Saints were in the market for some running back help with Alvin Kamara nursing an adductor injury suffered during Sunday's loss to the Washington Commanders. The Saints also have Kendre Miller and the veteran Jamaal Williams in the backfield.

Just two days after the Kansas City Chiefs released him, former first-round draft pick Clyde Edwards-Helaire has signed with the New Orleans Saints, as first reported by NewOrleans.Football's Nick Underhill.

And yet, just when things look the most dire, GM Mickey Loomis came in clutch with a nice piece of business, signing recently released running back Clyde Edwards-Helaire to the practice squad in order to help bolster their depth chart, according to the team's official social media account.
