Mark Ingram Injury: Updates on Saints RB's Week 10 Status and Fantasy Value

The New Orleans Saints have had an inconsistent running game all season, thanks in large part to rookie running back Mark Ingram's heel injury that has kept him out of the past two games. 

Ingram was finally starting to get a little rhythm going in the last game he played against Indianapolis. He ran for a career-high 91 yards on just 14 carries. 

With the Saints traveling to Atlanta for a crucial NFC South battle in Week 10, Ingram's presence becomes that much more critical for this team. 

We will have the latest news and information on Ingram's status for Week 10, so bookmark this page and check back throughout the week for the latest updates.

Saints beat writer Mike Triplett says Ingram is probable and his Tweet has to be leaving Saints fans feeling optimistic about their star 1st-round running back returning to action this week agaisnt the Atlanta Falcons.

Chris Ivory is banged up with a hamstring injury and the Saints need Ingram to play this week as they look to maintain the lead in the NFC South on the road this week.

While there has been no official update on Ingram's status for Sunday's game against Atlanta, Rotoworld lists him as week to week with the heel injury that has kept him out for the past two weeks.

Darren Sproles filled in admirably for Ingram last week, albeit against a weak Tampa Bay run defense. This team needs all of its running backs to be on the field and able to perform if they want to live up to their potential. 

Quarterback Drew Brees is great and can do many things on his own, but think how much better he would be if the Saints were able to run the ball on a consistent basis.
