Since entering the league as a third-round pick in 2017,\u00a0the Saints\u2019\u00a0playmaker has actually never recorded a 1,000-yard season on the ground.<\/p>\n<p>Surprisingly, the closest he came was actually in 2024, rushing for 950 yards at age 29.<\/p>\n<p>With that in mind, Kamara has never accumulated fewer than 1,000 scrimmage yards, and four of his NFL campaigns finished at or over 1,500 scrimmage yards.<\/p>\n<div id=\"AdThrive_Content_4_desktop\" class=\"adthrive-ad adthrive-content adthrive-content-4 adthrive-ad-cls\" data-google-query-id=\"\">\n<div id=\"google_ads_iframe_\/18190176,25816858\/AdThrive_Content_4\/5ad7479721520f50ab7da88e_0__container__\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"google-ad-manager-fallback-container\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>In other words, Kamara\u2019s impact has been felt in the passing game more often than not. And that appears to be Smith\u2019s most likely avenue of production as well.<\/p>\n<p>The rookie did break out for 1,332 rushing yards with SMU during his final season, but he mostly lined up at wide receiver before that in Miami, and rushed for pedestrian totals in that role.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s unclear if Smith\u2019s raw and unpolished ability as a runner will translate at the NFL level, but his pass-catching should. Especially if head coach Andy Reid utilizes the running back prospect creatively in the screen game.<\/p>\n<div id=\"AdThrive_Content_5_desktop\" class=\"adthrive-ad adthrive-content adthrive-content-5 adthrive-ad-cls\" data-google-query-id=\"\">\n<div id=\"google_ads_iframe_\/18190176,25816858\/AdThrive_Content_5\/5ad7479721520f50ab7da88e_0__container__\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"google-ad-manager-fallback-container\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Expectations should be measured, but perhaps there are similarities between Smith and Kamara after all.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>Brashard Smith\u2019s Presence Is Bad News for Chiefs RBs Elijah Mitchell &amp; Carson Steele<\/h2>\n<p>Veteran running back\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/heavy.com\/sports\/nfl\/kansas-city-chiefs\/kareem-hunt-cut-candidate-isiah-pacheco\/\">K<\/a>areem Hunt has come up as a potential cut candidate\u00a0in recent weeks, but the Smith selection could bode badly for free agent signing\u00a0Elijah Mitchell\u00a0and\/or 2024 UDFA\u00a0Carson Steele.<\/p>\n<p>Hunt could certainly be released due to his age alone, let\u2019s say he appears to have lost a step this summer, but Smith\u2019s presence as a third-down option feels more worrisome for Mitchell and Steele.<\/p>\n<div id=\"AdThrive_Content_6_desktop\" class=\"adthrive-ad adthrive-content adthrive-content-6 adthrive-ad-cls\" data-google-query-id=\"\">\n<div id=\"google_ads_iframe_\/18190176,25816858\/AdThrive_Content_6\/5ad7479721520f50ab7da88e_0__container__\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"google-ad-manager-fallback-container\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Mitchell is by no means a receiving back on the level of Kamara, or even ex-Chiefs\u2019\u00a0Jerick McKinnon\u00a0or\u00a0Samaje Perine, but he did\u00a0record 19 catches for 137 receiving yards\u00a0as a rookie.
