It turns out that Alvin Kamara is pretty good at football. Who knew?

On Thursday, the former Tennessee tailback was named the 2017 NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year. That was after he was drafted in the third round by the New Orleans Saints. As many have said throughout 2017, Kamara was underutilized at Tennessee.

Needless to say, he agrees with those people.

On Thursday, Kamara joined Bleacher Report’s “The Simms and Lefkoe Podcast.” When co-host Chris Simms went through Kamara’s atypical path to get to the NFL, the subject of his workload at Tennessee came up. Here’s how that sequence went down:

Simms: This is where I’m fascinated. Mr. Georgia, go to Alabama, leave Alabama, go to junior college, then go to Tennessee, I don’t know what they were smoking down there, they don’t give you enough carries…

Kamara: They were on some other s—.

Simms: Yeah, some other s—.

Here’s audio of the sequence (via Jordan Dajani):

Kamara, of course, shared the Vols backfield with Jalen Hurd. At Tennessee, Kamara averaged 8.75 carries in his 24 career games. Ironically enough, Kamara actually only averaged 7.5 carries per game in his rookie NFL season because he shared a backfield with former Alabama Heisman Trophy winner Mark Ingram.

Kamara did, however, catch 81 passes for 826 yards with 5 receiving touchdowns. A Pro Bowl bid and a Rookie of the Year honor tells the story about his impact on New Orleans’ offense.

Obviously, Kamara’s explosion in the NFL magnifies Tennessee’s struggles in the end of the Butch Jones era. And frankly Kamara didn’t say anything that Tennessee fans haven’t already heard.

Well, maybe not quite as colorfully as Kamara put it.
