Audric Estime

Audric Estime’s projection likely jumped because he immediately became New Orleans’ lead early-down back after Travis Etienne remained on injured reserve, Kendre Miller was released, and the Saints’ backfield continued dealing with injuries. He handled 15 carries for 72 yards and a touchdown in his Saints debut, while Alvin Kamara was used mainly on passing downs.

Audric Estime’s projection likely jumped because New Orleans released Kendre Miller, while C.J. Donaldson is out with a shoulder/concussion injury, leaving Estime positioned for a larger role behind Alvin Kamara.
