Kendre Miller News
Thursday, August 6, 5:07 PM
New Orleans Saints running back Kendre Miller (back) did not participate in Thursday's practice and is considered "day-to-day," according to head coach Kellen Moore. After being a limited participant in the previous few sessions, Miller was downgraded due to a back issue. The former third-round pick has dealt with injuries throughout his NFL career, including an ACL tear he suffered in Week 7 of last season. Miller is currently behind running backs Travis Etienne and Alvin Kamara and is competing for the RB3 role with second-year back Devin Neal. This back issue, along with recovery from a major knee injury, should keep him off the fantasy radar for the 2026 season unless he is traded to a better situation or injuries occur to the other Saints' backs.

Nathan Carter News
Thursday, July 16, 9:42 AM
Running back Nathan Carter operated as the Atlanta Falcons' No. 3 back in 2025 behind starter Bijan Robinson and Tyler Allgeier, and he will once again compete for the same role in training camp this summer behind Robinson and newcomer Brian Robinson Jr., according to Will McFadden of AtlantaFalcons.com. The 24-year-old former undrafted free agent out of Michigan State only had nine carries for 60 yards over seven games in his first year in the NFL, though, so he's still well off the fantasy radar going into his sophomore campaign. The majority of Carter's snaps in 2025 came on special teams. He'll have more competition for the No. 3 job in the form of Tyler Goodson and Cash Jones. McFadden writes that the Falcons' RB3 battle could be one of the more underrated competitions of camp. Carter will only pop up as a waiver-wire consideration in fantasy football in 2026 if one or both of the Robinsons miss time with injury in Atlanta.
