Devin Neal, the rookie running back for the New Orleans Saints, suffered a hamstring injury during the second quarter of the Week 15 game against the Carolina Panthers after scoring a touchdown. He was seen going into the medical tent and was subsequently ruled out for the rest of the game. Neal had been limited earlier in the week due to an abdomen injury but was expected to play fully. His injury status worsened as he was seen heading to the locker room after coming out of the medical tent, which is not a good sign for his recovery. Neal's absence is notable as he has performed well in Kamara's absence, scoring at least 11.1 PPR points in two of his past three games, including a season-best 19 carries for 70 yards and a touchdown in Week 14. Neal is the third Saints starting running back to miss time this season, following Alvin Kamara and Kendre Miller.
