Saints RB Alvin Kamara gets warning from Eagles defender for Week 3

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara has had a great start to the season with his stellar offense, scoring 40+ points in each of the team’s two wins.

Speaking of flying high, Philadelphia Eagles defenseman Darius Slay doesn’t want to see that when the two teams face off this weekend.

Speaking to reporters ahead of the NFC heavyweight matchup in Week 3, Slay warned Kamara.

β€œHe’s pretty good with it, man,” Slay told reporters, as recorded by Howard Eskin from Fox 29 TV. “One of the best backs with the best balance I’ve seen in a long time, man, he really breaks a lot of tackles. What’s crazy is I told him never to jump over me again, he jumped over me once when I was in Detroit, his rookie year, he really cleared me. So, Kamara, I know you’re probably watching this, don’t jump over me like that, I’m going to press charges, I swear to God I’m going to press charges.”

Slay is referring to a throwback to the Drew Brees days, when he was still a member of the Detroit Lions and Kamara treated him like a human nuisance on the goal line during a blowout Saints win.

Kamara does that to people often, literally and figuratively. That is especially the case now in this high-flying offense of coordinator Klint Kubiak, who has used a specific wrinkle to make him excel more than anyone else in the past decade.

So far, Kamara has averaged 5.7 yards per carry with four touchdowns and caught seven passes for 92 yards and a score. Up next is a faceoff with Slay and the Eagles in a matchup that will set the tone for the entire NFC.
