Outlook Corey Kiner
Corey Kiner vs. Packers — Stepping Into Secondary Role
With TreVeyon Henderson ruled out with an illness, Kiner elevates to the primary backup role behind Rhamondre Stevenson for Sunday's home matchup against Green Bay. Kiner has been efficient in limited action, averaging 4.6 yards per carry across his last two appearances while earning trust in short-yardage situations.
Our models project Kiner for approximately 7 carries and 38 rushing yards, yielding around 4.7 fantasy points. Because he rarely runs routes or sees targets in the passing game, his upside is heavily reliant on touchdown luck or a blowout script, making him a bench stash or desperate deep-league dart throw rather than a reliable lineup option.

Outlook Alvin Kamara
Alvin Kamara vs Cleveland — Dependable pass-catching floor brings solid flex appeal
Kamara was limited in practice earlier in the week but carries no injury designation heading into Sunday. With backfield mate CJ Donaldson ruled out, Kamara should handle primary passing-down duties in the Saints' committee. While his rushing efficiency has waned, his receiving role remains prominent after securing seven catches in his last outing.
Our models project Kamara for roughly 12.7 fantasy points, driven by four to five projected targets and around eight carries. Operating at home in the Superdome, his high-percentage target share provides stability despite a modest scoring projection. Fantasy managers should view him as a viable flex option whose weekly ceiling hinges on reaching the end zone.
