New Orleans Saints running back Devin Neal suffered a hamstring injury during Saturday's preseason loss to the Los Angeles Rams. Saints head coach Kellen Moore confirmed the injury but did not provide details on its severity or a timetable for Neal's return. This is Neal's second hamstring issue this summer, having missed training camp earlier. With Alvin Kamara sidelined, Neal had an opportunity to assert himself in the offense, making this setback particularly impactful. In addition to Neal, several other Saints players sustained injuries during the game, including linebacker Lorenzo Styles and wide receiver Bub Means. Further evaluations will help clarify Neal's status moving forward in the preseason.
