Saints RB Alvin Kamara may not face any suspension this year for his Pro Bowl fighting incident
If you drafted Alvin Kamara in Fantasy Football you should be happy. It sounds like Alvin Kamara who was arrested and charged for battery in Las Vegas at last year’s Pro Bowl will not be suspended this year.
According to ESPN NFL insider Adam Schefter, the disciplinary process focused on Kamara is set to resume with its next hearing on Sept. 29 — days before the Saints’ Week 4 game against the Vikings.
Kamara’s case will likely not reach a verdict in time for the Saints RB to be suspended this season, Schefter mentions.
“I think the league is going to be looking into this, but it is going to be a little while before this legal case is settled,” Schefter noted, speaking with Fantasy Focus Football‘s Field Yates. “There is a chance that the status of this case will not affect his availability this season.”
The running back, accompanied by three other men, was seen in security footage engaging in a fight with another man and punching him several times. The victim reportedly suffered a broken right eye socket. Kamara was ultimately charged with battery resulting in substantial bodily harm.
