Cadet gained 40 yards on four catches and seven yards on one carry in Sunday's 44-23 win over the Packers. Mark Ingram essentially got all of the carries, rumbling 24 times for 172 yards and a touchdown. Cadet, meanwhile, had a fairly quiet game will working as the top back on passing downs, as Drew Brees was often able to connect with open receivers downfield. That said, Cadet's five targets were tied for third most on the team, so it's not as if he was an afterthought. With Pierre Thomas (shoulder) likely out for at least one more game, Cadet should play a similar role Thursday in Carolina.
