It didn’t take long for Alvin Kamara to deliver on Christmas Day.
The New Orleans Saints running back crossed for a 40-yard touchdown run in the game’s opening unit for a quick lead over the Minnesota Vikings. And he did it in style, with a pair of green and red Christmas themed boots that can charge a fine from the league.
Kamara, who scored four touchdowns against the Vikings, now has 19 touchdowns this season – his career record. And he also established a high career with scrimmage yards. Kamara was nominated for his fourth Pro Bowl in four years earlier this week.

The Saints’ offensive line also deserves credit, in a day when the owners, Andrus Peat and Nick Easton, are injured. The line opened a big hole for Kamara against Minnesota’s exhausted defense.
Kamara may also be benefiting from his festive boots.
