Outlook Audric Estime
Audric Estime vs CAR at home — volatile flex option in a high-scoring matchup
Claimed off waivers by New Orleans earlier this month, Estime immediately contributed with 15 carries for 72 yards and a touchdown in his debut. While he sits behind Alvin Kamara and Travis Etienne Jr. on the depth chart, CJ Donaldson is out and Etienne remains questionable returning from injured reserve. Still, losing offensive linemen Erik McCoy and Taliese Fuaga could hurt efficiency.
Roster and start rates have surged past 70% and 40%, respectively, though our weekly projection stays modest at around 7 carries, 35 total yards, and 6.5 fantasy points. Despite a projected high-scoring home matchup against Carolina, Estime profiles as a touchdown-dependent flex option in a committee backfield.

Darnell Washington at CIN: high-scoring clash offers sneaky tight end upside
Healthy entering Sunday night's AFC North showdown between 6-2 clubs on four-game win streaks, Washington continues working behind Pat Freiermuth in Pittsburgh's tight end rotation. Coming off a three-catch, 94-yard outing on five targets in his last game, Washington has carved out big-play and red-zone value with three touchdowns across eight appearances this season.
Our weekly projection lands at 7.2 PPR points on roughly three catches for 31 yards, giving him dart-throw appeal in a matchup expected to be high scoring. Rostered in just 9% of leagues with a 4% start rate, Washington profiles as a volatile, touchdown-dependent option suited mostly for deep leagues.
