Saints snap counts: Alvin Kamara leads all running backs against Vikings

Monday night’s loss to the Minnesota Vikings wasn’t the type of game many New Orleans Saints fans were expecting. Sam Bradford was nearly perfect on the night, and Sean Payton’s squad couldn’t turn in touchdowns in four red zone attempts. Needless to say, the Saints started their 2017 campaign with a customary and familiar loss. Here’s a look at the team’s snap counts from the season opener. (Note: All data is provided by the NFL)
