Running back, Alvin Kamara faced a precarious situation mid-game while trying to help his team. The Saints’ RB rushed through the moment in their game against the Lions this Sunday. The Saints are working hard to register a win after their horrendous performance during the whole season. Meanwhile, Alvin Kamara ran over an NFL chain official in a devastating collision during the play of things. It happened in a hurry when Kamara was running to his left to dodge a tackle, but was pushed out of the gridiron. CHAIN OFFICIAL PAYS THE TOLL In a desperate attempt to register a win against the Lions Saints’ RB, Kamara ended up impacting an NFL chain official who was simply doing his job. The RB collided with a NFL official, resulting in a devastating injury. MLFottball shared the video of the gruesome incident and broke the news on X. The post mentioned that “Sideline is one scary place“. After the collision, Kamara stood back right up, but the chain guy was left screaming in pain as his leg looked twisted in an awkward position.

As the day doesn?t end with a nice movie, my week doesn?t end without the NFL
game day. I never imagined that I would get hooked on the sport so much. I was a
big-time MMA fan but the early retirement of Khabib took out the competition and
has led me toward the NFL. The Chiefs and the Eagles are the teams that I love
the most. Kelce brothers? relationship on and off the field is the best thing
about the game for me. Although I have not spent much time at EssentiallySports,
I have connected with the fans with my articles so far. My way of writing is
quite simple; ?stats are sacred? is the motto. When I am not writing, I spend my
time doing my bit as an animal rights activist and love to trek through the
less-discovered trails. So if you want to reach out and talk about the NFL or
any of the above, feel free to make a touchdown!

<h2 style="text-align: center">Detroit Lions 2022: News, Schedule, Roster, Score, Injury Report</h2>
<p style="text-align: center">The club was originally founded in Portsmouth, Ohio, and enlisted in the NFL in 1930 going by the Portsmouth Spartans banner. 4 years later, in 1934, the team relocated to Detroit citing financial struggles. Furthermore, the franchise was renamed to the Lions with reference to the city?s MLB counterpart franchise going by the Tigers.</p>
<img class="aligncenter wp-image-483977 size-full" src="https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/lyon.jpg" alt="" width="1080" height="991" />
<p style="text-align: center">The very next year, they enjoyed tremendous success as they went on to win 4 championship games between 1935 to 1957. However, their success hasn?t seen the same peak since then, as they have only won a single playoff game in 1992.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">Additionally, they are the oldest NFL franchise to never appear in the Super Bowl. They also go down as the only team from the NFC to not appear for the same. This has long since been a talking point surrounding the franchise, considering their tenure in the league.</p>
<img class="aligncenter wp-image-483986 size-full" src="https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/wire.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="600" />
<p style="text-align: center">Heading through to Week 14 of the 2020 season, the Detroit Lions have accrued a record of 5-8 and are placed 4th in the NFC North. However, this is an improvement from their previous season record that topped out at 3-12-1. Moreover, the principal owner Martha Firestone Ford stepped down and passed on the ownership to her daughter Sheila Ford Hamp on June 23rd, 2020.</p>

<h2 style="text-align: center">Logo</h2>
<p style="text-align: center">The classic blue prancing Lion logo was brought into the fold from the 1961 season but wouldn?t be made the primary logo till 1970. The logo has seen minor reiterations, chiefly stemming from a stylistic change to the outline. The Honolulu blue outline was swapped for a black outline after 2002, and it ran until 2008.</p>
<img class="aligncenter wp-image-483982 size-full" src="https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/def.jpg" alt="" width="1280" height="720" />
<p style="text-align: center">The present logo of the Detroit Lions has been active since February 1st, 2017, and underwent a minor tweak from the previous design that ran from 2009 to 2016. Chiefly, the difference was the change in the color of the outline, which went from black to metallic silver.</p>

<h2 style="text-align: center">Detroit Lions Owner Achievements</h2>
<p style="text-align: center">Sheila Ford Hamp is a descendant of both Ford and Firestone family fortunes, and she became the principal owner in June 2020 when her mother Martha Firestone Ford stepped down. Prior to her role as the principal owner and chairperson, Sheila Hamp served as the vice chairperson of the Detroit Lions since 2014.</p>
<img class="aligncenter wp-image-483995 size-full" src="https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/huddle.jpg" alt="" width="1920" height="1280" />
<p style="text-align: center">Additionally, she serves on the NFL?s Super Bowl and Major Events committee alongside many key figures in the league. Following a 4-7 start to the 2020 season under her ownership, Sheila would fire General Manager Bob Quinn and Head Coach Matt Patricia.</p>

<h2 style="text-align: center">Detroit Lions 2022 Sponsors</h2>
<p style="text-align: center">A marquee sponsor out of Detroit came in the form of Quick Lane Tire and auto center, which provides routine service and up-keep maintenance for its customers. Additionally, they have had successful tie-ups with Quicken Loans as well as Windsor Family Credit Union. Additionally, the Detroit Lions have also partnered up with Coppercraft Distillery and they offered branded products at 6 bar locations within the parameters of Ford Field.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">BetMGM has also joined up with the Lions and will be the first official sports betting partner for the franchise. Not to mention, the Detroit Lions have a partnership with Humanetics who serve as the presenting sponsor for the club. Events are put together to recognize and honor active duty and former service members.</p>

New Orleans Saints

New Orleans Saints 2022: News, Schedule, Roster, Score, Injury Report The New Orleans Saints came into existence ahead of the 1967 NFL season after the league granted the city a franchise. They derive the name from the city and a calling card of the city?s culture. i.e. Jazz. The name ?Saints? came from the Louis Armstrong melody ?When the Saints go marching in.? The song is used as chants at the team?s home stadiums, which have changed twice. The Saints made their NFL bow at the Tulane Stadium before moving to the Superdome where they are based even in the 2020 NFL season.? In the 2005 NFL season, New Orleans had to play their share of home games in New York?s Giants Stadium, San Antonio?s Alamodome, and the LSU Tigers? Tiger Stadium.? In keeping with the Saints theme, the club?s official launch date was on November 1, known as All-Saints day. The New Orleans Saints entered the ranks of professional football for the 1967 NFL season. Right from their first game, they retained their black and gold colors. The New Orleans Saints endured two decades of failure and couldn?t make a mark. They claimed a first divisional title nearly a quarter of a century after making their NFL bow. This didn?t prove to be the kick they needed as they slipped back into oblivion.?The Saints ended the 90s with a combined 15-33 record in the 1997, 1998, and 1999 NFL seasons.? The turn of the century brought about the winds of change for ?The Black and Gold?. After just a solitary post-season appearance, the franchise has transformed into playoff regulars.? Led by long time New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees, and Head Coach Sean Payton led outfit features in the NFC South alongside Atlanta Falcons, Carolina Panthers, and Tampa Bay Buccaneers.? The Saints finished their 2020 campaign with a 12-4 record and placed first in the NFC South. Brees led the franchise to a Wild Card Playoffs win vs the Chicago Bears 21-9. However, they fell to their divisional rival Tampa Bay Buccaneers 20-30 in the Divisional Playoffs. NEW ORLEANS, LOUISIANA &#8211; NOVEMBER 15: Drew Brees #9 of the New Orleans Saints reacts following a play during their game against the San Francisco 49ers at Mercedes-Benz Superdome on November 15, 2020 in New Orleans, Louisiana. (Photo by Chris Graythen/Getty Images) Owner Achievements Gayle Benson is the owner of the New Orleans Saints and NBA side New Orleans Pelicans. She took over the position after her husband Tom Benson died in 2018.? The businessman paid $70 million for the team ahead of the 1985 NFL season.? Benson&#8217;s primary aim was to ensure the city had a football team as the previous owners wished to cut their losses. The party interested in the purchase may have moved the team away from its base, which did not sit well with Benson, who took matters into his own hands.? At the time of the purchase, the Saints had yet to make it past the regular season in 18 attempts. Under Benson, the franchise&#8217;s fortunes changed as they made it to two playoffs in the next five seasons.? New Orleans Saints Achievements The New Orleans Saints have won the Super Bowl XLIV title for the 2009 NFL season. They beat the Indianapolis Colts &#8211; to follow up their maiden Conference Championship win and bring football&#8217;s biggest prize to the state of Louisiana for the first time.? Besides the solitary Vincent Lombardi Trophy triumph, the franchise has claimed the divisional title eight times. Furthermore, they have made it to the playoffs 13 times, with eight of these appearances coming after Drew Brees signed with the team ahead of the 2006 NFL season.? Their stronghold on the NFC South since 2002 exhibits the formidable unit they are. Despite sustained dominance in the new millennium, the New Orleans Saints are yet to produce a regular-season NFL MVP winner.? Nine individuals associated with the New Orleans Saints are part of the Pro Football Hall of Fame.?

<h3>NFL</h3>
<h3>History</h3>
In August 1920, representatives from four states: Akron, Canton, Cleveland, and Dayton, held a meeting and formed the American Professional Football Conference (APFC) to improve footballing standards in the country. A month later, they formed the American Professional Football Association (APFA) and played a league with 14 teams. In 1922, they changed the name to the National Football League (NFL).

In 1960, a new professional league, the American Football League (AFL) started as a competition against the NFL. After six years, in 1966, the two leagues announced a merger that would take effect in 1970. During the four years between the announcement and the actual merger, the leagues started playing a Championship game which was called The Super Bowl. Since then, the two leagues have been recognized as two separate conferences within the same league, the NFL.
<h3>Participating teams</h3>
There are 32 teams in the NFL divided equally into two conferences: National Football Conference (NFC) and the American Football Conference (AFC). Each conference is further divided into 4 divisions: East, North, South, and West, with each division containing four teams.
