Alvin Kamara

Durability Story · Elevated

Alvin Kamara's durability file isn’t one dramatic injury — it’s a pattern. The same lower-body soft-tissue themes keep resurfacing. Evidence check: injury reports across 10 different seasons; 8 games missed in the last three (2025: 6 and 2024: 2); 2025 was the rough one at 6 missed; longest on-report absence ran 6 weeks in 2025 (Wk 13–18); reinjury band sits at High. The news desk has been quieter lately, so the structured history is doing most of the talking.

For fantasy, bake in real availability uncertainty for Alvin — don’t price a full 17-game slate until practice reports settle for a few weeks.

Based on injury history + recent reporting. Not a medical diagnosis.
