    New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara suffered an ankle injury in the Saints' 23-13 win against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and did not return to the game.

    In the first quarter, Kamara carried the ball ten times for 45 yards; however, he left the game to go to the locker room. Kamara was replaced by backup running back Jamaal Williams because Kendre Miller was ruled out of the game.

    Kamara became the first player in franchise history to reach 10,000 career yards from scrimmage before he left with the injury.

    Next week, the Saints host the Atlanta Falcons in their regular-season finale, and they still have a chance to win the NFC South to keep the Saints' playoff hopes alive.
