Alvin Kamara returns to practice, three Saints not spotted during open portion

Related Topics: Alvin Kamara, Wednesday

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara returned to practice during the portion open to the media on Wednesday.

Kamara suffered a concussion against the Atlanta Falcons.

An NFL player who suffers a concussion must progress through five steps of the league's concussion protocol, of which the final step is a player returning to full-contact practice without restriction.

Kamara, who sat out all but the first series of last Thursday's 20-17 loss to the Falcons, still ranks sixth in the NFL in yards from scrimmage — one spot behind teammate Mark Ingram — with 1,247 yards, including 608 rushing yards and 639 receiving yards.
