Saints placed Mark Ingram (knee) on injured reserve.
In Week 13, Ingram attempted to play through the sprained MCL he initially suffered in Week 8. He re-aggravated the injury and was expected to miss the remainder of the season by the next day. With New Orleans all but out of the playoff hunt, Ingram is indeed done for the year. His season ends with 62 carries for 233 yards and a lone touchdown. He will look to sign a one-year deal as a backup in the offseason, though his days of being a fantasy-relevant option are likely over.
NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports Mark Ingram (knee) is likely out for the season.
Ingram played in obvious pain during Monday night's gutting loss to the Bucs, for some reason functioning as the Saints' lead back for much of the contest. His recovery window would be about six weeks, meaning he won't play again with the Saints all but out of playoff contention once again. Alvin Kamara should resume a bigger pass-catching role with Ingram sidelined.
Mark Ingram rushed seven times for 27 yards in the Saints' Week 13 loss to the Buccaneers, catching all five targets for an additional 22 yards.
Ingram appeared to aggravate a right knee injury in the fourth quarter before returning to the game on the following possession, only to stay on one knee on the sideline after his final catch of the game. Further updates on his status are expected this week as the Saints head to their Week 14 bye.
Mark Ingram (foot) practiced in full on Friday.
It's an upgrade from a limited session and likely just maintenance for the 32-year-old back. Ingram isn't worth fantasy consideration at the moment with Taysom Hill taking up so much space in the New Orleans game plan.
