INJURY UPDATE: RB Alvin Kamara Suffers Serious Injury After Intentional Foul by Atlanta Falcons Star – Viral Video Has Sparked an Outburst of Fury from the Saints Community

New Orleans, Louisiana. 24/11/2025

The New Orleans Saints didn’t just lose 24–10 to the Atlanta Falcons. They also witnessed one of the most infuriating moments of the season when Alvin Kamara exited the game following a collision that virtually every Saints fan believes could not have been accidental.

The play unfolded along the right sideline as Kamara tried to break free from the initial tackle. Linebacker Kaden Elliss suddenly changed direction and drove straight into the outside of Kamara’s knee with significant force. Slow-motion angles that spread online immediately after the game showed Elliss targeting a vulnerable area — prompting fans, players, and analysts to label it a deliberate cheap shot.

Kamara collapsed instantly, clutching his knee, and needed assistance to get off the field. He entered the medical tent three separate times before ultimately being ruled out. The Saints later confirmed he suffered a significant MCL injury, with an MRI scheduled in the next 24 hours to determine the severity.

The hit’s video quickly amassed millions of views on X (Twitter), sparking a wave of fury across the Saints community. Thousands demanded that the NFL issue a harsh penalty on Elliss, calling the play “the cheapest hit of the season.”

Inside the locker room, Kamara didn’t hide his frustration and concern as he described the moment:

“I felt the hit the second he changed direction and I knew immediately it wasn’t a normal football play. When my knee bent in a way no player ever wants to feel, all I could do was ask myself why it had to happen like that. A hit like that can take away an entire season and sometimes even more.”

Without Kamara, the Saints’ offense collapsed:
– No offensive touchdowns
– Only 79 rushing yards
– Tyler Shough sacked 5 times under constant pressure

Head coach Kellen Moore avoided directly attacking Elliss but confirmed the Saints will file formal documentation to the NFL requesting a full review of the play.

The Falcons declined to comment.

New Orleans lost a game, but what angers them far more is the belief that Alvin Kamara was targeted on a deliberate, dangerous hit. Now, the entire city waits anxiously for the MRI results — results that could determine the fate of the Saints’ season.

Just 1 Hour After Learning He's No Longer in the Plans, Cowboys' $91.8 Million Star Right Tackle Is Ready to Restructure His Contract — Just for One More Chance to Play in Dallas Blue
Dallas, Texas – December 23, 2025 The message arrived quickly and without ambiguity. Just one hour after receiving clear signals that he was no longer part of the team’s long-term plans, Terence Steele chose a response rarely seen in today’s NFL: he voluntarily expressed willingness to restructure his $91.8 million contract, with one goal in mind — to continue wearing the Dallas Cowboys uniform. The move comes as the Dallas Cowboys undergo a significant shift along the offensive line. Coaches have confirmed that Tyler Smith will remain at left tackle over the final two games, while Tyler Guyton is expected to serve only as a swing tackle — a clear signal that Dallas is preparing for a future without Steele at right tackle. Combined with an “easy out” in Steele’s contract in 2026, his name has quickly surfaced among potential cap casualties. Rather than wait in silence for a decision, Steele chose to speak — not in protest, but in commitment. “If the team no longer sees me as the first option, I’m willing to step back,” Steele said. “I can restructure my deal, accept any role, even start from the bench — as long as I can stay here and be ready when the Cowboys need me. Dallas isn’t just where I play; it’s where my heart truly belongs.” What makes Steele’s stance resonate even more is what he has already given Dallas. An undrafted free agent in 2020, Steele defied the odds to become a full-time starter, logging over 5,000 career offensive snaps, protecting the edge in some of the league’s most pass-heavy offenses. At his peak, Steele started every game in back-to-back seasons, helped anchor a line that ranked top five in pass protection efficiency, and played a key role in Dallas finishing among the NFL’s top offenses in total yards and scoring. Teammates routinely cite his toughness — playing through injuries, rarely missing time, and lining up against elite edge rushers week after week. For the Cowboys, the dilemma is complex. The franchise must protect the blindside of Dak Prescott while also creating cap flexibility for a looming retooling process. Steele’s willingness to sacrifice financially could open another path — or at the very least, force decision-makers to pause before closing the door entirely on a proven veteran. No one knows yet whether Steele’s message will alter the final outcome. But in a league often driven by numbers, his response offered something different: loyalty expressed through action. In Dallas — where legacies are built on more than just contracts and depth charts — Terence Steele has reminded the Cowboys of a simple truth. Sometimes, a player’s greatest value isn’t found on a balance sheet, but in his willingness to stay, sacrifice, and fight for the star when the path forward suddenly narrows.
