Ivory, who had 217 rushing yards on 40 carries last season, is currently log-jammed on a Saints depth chart that includes Darren Sproles, Mark Ingram and Pierre Thomas.

According to Howard Balzar: Could offer sheet be coming for Saints RFA RB Chris Ivory? He visited Jets Friday. Compensation would be second-round pick. — Howard Balzer (@HBalzer721) April 13, 2013 This would be fascinating if true. Ivory is twenty-five and has been hidden on the depth chart behind Darren Sproles, Mark Ingram, and Pierre Thomas. He's shown some serious talent in limited opportunities. In 251 career carries, Ivory has averaged 5.1 YPC and eight touchdowns. Per ESPN Insider: With Pierre Thomas, Darren Sproles, Mark Ingram and Travaris Cadet on the roster, Ivory was ...

When cornerback Keenan Lewis and linebacker Victor Butler signed as free agents with the New Orleans Saints, they knew they would get a change of scenery. The two new players have also got new numbers that they are sporting for the Saints as they head towards the new season. It started with Lewis and running back Mark Ingram. Ingram wore #22 when he was with the University of Alabama. Players try to keep their college numbers when they enter the NFL but Ingram had one problem when he was drafted in 2011: cornerback Tracy Porter was wearing Ingram's college number and wasn't giving i...

From the moment Mark Ingram was selected with the 28th overall pick of the 2011 NFL Draft, he was placed in an impossible situation. Ingram was twenty yards behind the line of scrimmage before he ever took his first handoff. His selection by New Orleans was a direct reaction to the Saints halfback situation four months earlier at Seattle in the playoffs. The current New Orleans Saints backfield was acquired in the following ways: Travaris Cadet - Undrafted Free Agent Chris Ivory - Undrafted Free Agent Pierre Thomas - Undrafted Free Agent Darren Sproles - Free Agent (originally a 4th ...

For the past two years I've been as staunch a defender of Mark Ingram as anyone else, against a growing number of frustrated Saints fans who are ready to give up on the running back. The Ingram haters are quick to point out the useless two-yard runs up the middle, crediting him with nothing more and failing to see his true value. But that's an unfair and uneducated opinion, plain and simple. My stance, however, has always been that Ingram's faults are not really his own. Instead, the coaching staff is to blame for not properly using the back and for not giving him enough carries. He's ...

Eddie Lacy is just the latest in a long line of Alabama running backs to find success under Nick Saban: Trent Richardson, Mark Ingram, and even Glen Coffee were all highly touted leading up to the NFL draft. Michael Turner, who as we know is due almost $7M in salary next season, may not be long for the world of Atlanta sports (if only the Georgia Force were still in existence). Jacquizz Rodgers probably won't carry the load himself. Could the Lacy train be coming to town?
