Audric Estime vs CLE — Backup Role Opens Against Former Team
Fresh off being claimed off waivers from Cleveland, Estime steps directly into a revenge spot against his former squad. With Travis Etienne Jr. sidelined on injured reserve and CJ Donaldson ruled out with an injury, Estime is positioned to serve as the primary power backup behind Alvin Kamara in a crowded New Orleans backfield.
Our weekly projection forecasts Estime for roughly 8 carries, 21 rushing yards, and 7.7 fantasy points, heavily relying on goal-line scoring chances for fantasy viability. Started in less than 3% of leagues, he is purely a touchdown-dependent stash or desperation option who belongs on benches in typical formats.

Emmett Johnson vs NYJ — Explosive Change-of-Pace Value at Home
Operating as Kansas City's primary change-of-pace back behind Kenneth Walker, Johnson recently broke out with a 73-yard touchdown catch and has seen his roster rate climb to 46%. With backup Brashard Smith sidelined, Johnson has solidified his grip on the RB2 role in Andy Reid's offense.
Kansas City enters as heavy home favorites against the Jets in a projected high-scoring matchup. Our projections forecast roughly 38 total yards on 4 carries and 2 catches (6.9 fantasy points). Given his dynamic big-play ability, Johnson profiles as an upside deep-league play with strong stash value.
