FILE - In this Aug. 25, 2018, file photo, New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees motions before starting a play during the first half of an NFL preseason football game against the Los Angeles Chargers, in Carson, Calif. The Atlanta Falcons may be a step ahead of the New Orleans Saints in each team’s search for offensive balance. That’s not enough to make Falcons defensive coordinator Marquand Manuel rest easy. The Saints have Drew Brees, and the veteran quarterback’s guile is enough to make any defensive coach lose sleep. (AP Photo/Jae C. Hong, File)

FILE - In this Dec. 3, 2017, file photo, New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara (41) celebrates his touchdown in front of Carolina Panthers cornerback James Bradberry (24) during the first half of an NFL football game in New Orleans. Whether Saints running backs Mark Ingram and Kamara are standing side-by-side in the Superdome locker room for one of their joint postgame news conferences, or side-by-side on the sidelined of a college football game they attended together, it looks as though they not only feel invested in one another’s success, but actually like one another.

FILE - This Dec. 24, 2017 file photo shows New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees (9) passing in the second half of an NFL football game against the Atlanta Falcons in New Orleans. Brees is on the verge of reclaiming an NFL record this week, just weeks before his 39th birthday. Brees enters New Orleans’ season finale at Tampa Bay with a completion percentage of 71.9. If that holds, he’ll break the single-season record of 71.7 percent set by Minnesota’s Sam Bradford last season. Brees says improvements to the running game and defense have produced less risky game plans featuring higher-percentage throws. (AP Photo/Butch Dill, file)

FILE - In this Dec. 24, 2017, file photo, Atlanta Falcons strong safety Keanu Neal (22) tries to break up a pass intended for New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara (41) during the first half of an NFL football game in New Orleans. Kamara says the NFL has fined him $6,079 for wearing Christmas-themed red cleats with white trim during last Sunday’s victory over Atlanta. Kamara says it was worth it and says he’s hoping to parlay publicity from his banned holiday cleats into a fundraiser to help supply athletic footwear to children whose families struggle to afford it.

Now that Adrian Peterson has been traded to Arizona, the Saints have a clearer vision for a running game that increasingly features rookie Alvin Kamara, and coach Sean Payton no longer has to answer questions about the Peterson's lack of usage in the offense.

FILE - In this Sunday, Sept. 10, 2017, file photo, Carolina Panthers running back Christian McCaffrey (22) runs against the San Francisco 49ers during the first half of an NFL football game in Santa Clara, Calif. McCaffrey and New Orleans’ Alvin Kamara are in the infant stages of NFL careers that could very well run along parallel tracks in the same division for years to come. Their convergence off their pro football paths comes into focus on Sunday, when the Saints visit the Panthers in NFC South play. (AP Photo/Marcio Jose Sanchez, File)

Why rookie Saints running back Alvin Kamara never emerged as a premier college player at Alabama or Tennessee remains unclear to coach Sean Payton. All Payton knows is that Kamara has continued during training camp to show promise as far as fulfilling the vision the Saints have for the third round pick. (AP Photo/Derick E. Hingle, File)
