Alvin Kamara Challenges Coach Kellen Moore’s Decision to Prevent a Talented Young OT with Over 2000 Snaps in His Career from Switching to Safety – Are the Saints Holding Back His True Potential?
New Orleans, Louisiana – 14/11/2025
Alvin Kamara, the star running back for the New Orleans Saints, has spoken out against a decision made by Head Coach Kellen Moore and the team’s front office regarding preventing a young, talented player from trying out at safety, despite the player’s impressive performance at outside linebacker (OT). Kamara believes that testing this player at safety could bring significant tactical benefits to the team, especially since this player could add power and versatility to the defense.

Kamara shared, "I don’t understand why they killed the plan to move him to safety. He has the perfect frame for it, and over 2000 career snaps prove his defensive capabilities. The team needs that strength and flexibility right now. Blocking his move is holding back his full potential."
Although the player has been performing well at OT, Kamara believes his ability to catch and contribute to defense has been outstanding, with over 100 tackles in the past season. He has also made some crucial tackles and shown impressive game awareness. Kamara emphasizes that the team needs to experiment with players in different roles to develop new strategies and increase versatility.
Kamara added, "We need to experiment with players in different positions to create new tactical opportunities. When the team can be flexible with how we use players, we’ll be harder to predict and create more chances for victory."
Although this player has had success at OT, Kamara believes that testing him at safety could open up new strategic possibilities for the team this season. The final decision on whether to test him at safety in upcoming games will depend on the Saints' front office. However, the ongoing debate about how to utilize this young, versatile talent will undoubtedly play a key role in the team’s development strategy for this season.
