Saints running back Alvin Kamara performed one of his patented jukes on Saturday. But instead of it coming against an NFL defense, Kamara shook off an erroneous trade demand rumor.
With New Orleans (2-5) mired in a five-game losing streak and drifting toward irrelevancy, Kamara, who is on an expiring contract, would undoubtedly be valuable for a contending team.
However, the 2017 Offensive Rookie of the Year shut down an early report on Saturday that he had requested a trade from the Saints, calling the rumor “incorrect” and alluding that his focus was on the massive Alabama-Tennessee SEC showdown on Saturday afternoon.
