Saints rookie defensive back Kamrin Moore has hit a speed bump on his road to making the New Orleans Saints roster.

The 2018 sixth-round pick missed nearly two weeks of training camp as he worked to get back from a hamstring injury.

"It's tough not being able to do what you love and be out here with your guys competing, getting better because that's the goal of camp," Moore said. "So, it was frustrating at times. But you just got to put your nose to the grindstone and keep rehabbing."

Moore returned to practice Friday and since then has been trying to prove to the New Orleans staff he's ready to contribute.

His return was a welcome site for his coaches.

"Glad he's back out," Saints secondary coach Aaron Glenn said. "It's kind of hard to say what we've seen because we haven't had a lot of practice. One thing I can tell you is he's a really, really, really smart kid."

Glenn said that Moore came to the organization prepared to handle multiple coverages and has the versatility to play multiple positions in the Saints' defense. He credited the preparation defensive back received at Boston College in part for getting him ready for the NFL.
