Kamara (rest/back) didn't practice Wednesday.

The Saints cited rest and back as the reasons for Kamara's absence to begin Week 9 prep, the latter of which impacted his practice reps in each of the three games before the team's Week 8 bye. During that stretch, he tallied 27 touches for 137 yards from scrimmage and one receiving TD. Kamara will have two more opportunities to practice this week and put himself in a position to avoid a designation for Sunday's contest against the Browns.
