New Orleans Saints running back Kendre Miller started the first half of the Saints' second preseason game against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Miller finished with six carries for 21 yards in Sunday's 17-17 tie. He has logged exactly six carries each in the team's two preseason contests as he looks to establish himself as Alvin Kamara's backup following two injury-plagued seasons. With Cam Akers and Clyde Edwards-Helaire turning in underwhelming performances again this week and Devin Neal (hamstring) sidelined by a hamstring injury, the backup job appears to be Miller's to lose. He's worth holding as a handcuff to Kamara in deeper fantasy leagues.

New York Giants wide receiver Malik Nabers (back, shoulder, toe) will return to practice on Tuesday and do some things, according to Evan Barnes of Newsday. It sounds as though Nabers will be pretty limited in his return to the practice field, but it's still good news for the 22-year-old with the 2025 regular season quickly approaching. Nabers has been battling a toe injury since his college days at LSU, and he also suffered a shoulder injury this summer before recently coming down with a back issue. While it's certainly something to watch, none of his three injuries are considered serious or anything that will keep him from suiting up for Week 1 of the regular season on Sunday, Sept. 7, against the division-rival Washington Commanders. Nabers caught an impressive 109 passes for 1,204 yards and seven touchdowns as a rookie and is strong WR1 target in fantasy.
