• Saints' Audric Estime: Eight touches working behind Hill

  8H ago • By RotoWire

  Estime rushed five times for 19 yards and caught three of four targets for 17 yards in Sunday's 29-6 win over the Jets. The Saints were missing Alvin Kamara (knee/ankle) and Devin Neal (hamstring, IR), but Taysom Hill stepped up as the top option at running back. Hill paced the team with 12 carries while Estime and Evan Hull each had five. Even if Kamara remains sidelined in Week 17 against the Titans, Estime will likely remain limited to a complementary role.

• Saints' Audric Estime: Sleeper RBs

  2D ago • By Jamey Eisenberg

  I'm going to take a chance on Estime as at least a flex with Alvin Kamara (knee) and Devin Neal (hamstring) out. We'll see how the Saints use Estime and Evan Hull against the Jets, but I like Estime the best of this duo. And the matchup is fantastic since the Jets are No. 1 in most Fantasy points allowed to opposing running backs in the past five weeks. Over that span, the Jets have allowed 14 total touchdowns to running backs, and six guys have at least 90 total yards (TreVeyon Henderson, Derrick Henry, Bijan Robinson, De'Von Achane, Jaylen Wright and Travis Etienne). Estime could be a league-winner in all formats in Week 16.

• Saints' Audric Estime: Week 16 Waiver Priority List

  6D ago • By Jamey Eisenberg

  The Saints could have running back issues in Week 16 against the Jets if Alvin Kamara (knee) and Devin Neal (hamstring) are both out. Estime and Evan Hull (1 percent rostered) would split the workload if Kamara and Neal can't play, and I would give Estime the slight lean as the better Fantasy running back. Both had little work in Week 15 against Carolina after Neal was injured, with Estime at three carries for 11 yards and three catches for 39 yards on three targets, while Hull had four carries for 12 yards. It's a great matchup since the Jets are No. 3 in most Fantasy points allowed to opposing running backs, and Estime and Hull would be flex options if Kamara and Neal are out.

• Saints' Audric Estime: Splits with Hull after Neal injury

  7D ago • By RotoWire

  Estime rushed three times for 11 yards and caught all three of his targets for 39 yards in Sunday's 20-17 win over the Panthers. Estime and Evan Hull (four carries for 12 yards, no targets) took on larger roles after Devin Neal (hamstring) exited in the second quarter. If neither Neal nor Alvin Kamara (knee/ankle) return in Week 16 against the Jets, Estime and Hull would be in line for expanded roles. Estime had only three carries all season coming into Sunday's win.

• Saints' Audric Estime: Healthy scratch Week 12

  28D ago • By RotoWire

  Estime (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Falcons. Estime joined the Saints' active roster in early November to provide the Saints with more backfield depth after Kendre Miller tore his ACL in mid-October. Estime saw five snaps (three on offense, two on special teams) in Week 10 against the Panthers, but he will be a healthy scratch for Sunday's NFC South clash. That leaves Alvin Kamara and Devin Neal as the Saints' two running backs on the active roster for Week 12. Estime's next chance to play is Week 13 against the Dolphins on Sunday, Nov. 30.
