Audric Estime Handles Workhorse Role, Shows Pass-Catching Prowess in Finale

AutoDraft Pro AI

New Orleans Saints RB Audric Estime rushed 21 times for 63 yards and caught all five targets for 43 yards in the 19-17 loss to the Falcons. With Alvin Kamara (knee) sidelined, Estime led the Saints' ground attack for the second consecutive week. While less efficient rushing than Week 17, he had an impressive day as a pass catcher. Estime's strong performances over the last two games position him to potentially compete for significant playing time in 2026, given Kamara's uncertain future.
