Not really sure when or how Ingram injured his shoulder but the running back missed practice today. Logic would dictate that C.J. Spiller will see an increased roll in the final four games, but he seems to be in Sean Payton's dog house so I'm not even sure if that's true. Tim Hightower might actually get the bulk of the carries the rest of the season. Who knows?
Below are Ingram's stats this season:
Year | Team | G | Att | Att/G | Yds | Avg | Yds/G | TD | Lng | 1st | 1st% | 20+ | 40+ | FUM |
2015 | New Orleans Saints | 12 | 166 | 13.8 | 769 | 4.6 | 64.1 | 6 | 70 | 44 | 26.5 | 5 | 2 | 1 |
