Kendre Miller News
Saturday, October 24, 10:20 AM
New Orleans Saints running back Kendre Miller is a priority waiver add as his share of the backfield grows during Travis Etienne Jr.'s (hamstring) absence, and the increased workload makes him a viable RB2 or flex option against the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 7, particularly for managers seeking immediate help in 10-team and deeper leagues. His offensive snap rate increased from 31% in Week 5 to 44% against the New York Giants, when he handled 20 of New Orleans' 33 running back carries. Miller rushed for 70 yards, while Alvin Kamara managed seven attempts and CJ Donaldson had six. Kamara (back) was limited throughout the practice week but carries no injury designation, and he remains involved in the passing game after recording 35 receiving yards and a touchdown against the Giants. Miller's receiving contribution has been minimal, with two catches for zero yards in Week 6. Etienne could return after the Saints' Week 8 bye, which potentially limits Miller's longer-term value.

Germie Bernard News
Friday, October 23, 5:22 PM
Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Germie Bernard broke out with 11 catches for 87 yards and a touchdown on 12 targets last week and should remain heavily involved in Week 7 against the New Orleans Saints. With Michael Pittman Jr. (foot), Roman Wilson (finger), and Ben Skowronek (calf) all inactive, Bernard and veteran teammate DK Metcalf were the only wide receivers to receive a target from quarterback Aaron Rodgers last week. That concentrated target share should continue against a Saints defense allowing the fourth-most yards and the most points per game to opposing offenses. Fantasy managers who have been stashing Bernard or were fortunate enough to claim him off waivers can feel confident starting the rookie as a low-end WR2 in Paris on Sunday.
