Alvin Kamara's ankle injury will keep him out of the New Orleans Saints' lineup for a second straight game, as the star running back won't play Sunday versus the Arizona Cardinals.

Kamara missed last week's win in Chicago against the Bears. However, he's expected to be back for the Nov. 10 contest against the Atlanta Falcons following the team's Week 9 bye, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter.

Latavius Murray will likely see plenty of action in Kamara's absence, as the veteran rusher piled up 119 yards and two touchdowns against the Bears.

While Kamara won't be in the lineup Sunday, quarterback Drew Brees is active after missing five games with a thumb injury.
