Kendre Miller's Role Trending Up with Saints Injuries

Saturday, August 22, 8:05 PM

New Orleans Saints running back Kendre Miller had six carries for 22 yards in the 34-0 preseason loss to the Los Angeles Rams. While Miller struggled to gain ground, Saturday was a positive for his fantasy stock. He was the clear-cut starter with Travis Etienne and Alvin Kamara (knee) both sitting out. He played 14 of 26 snaps with the starting offense, while Ty Chandler (6) and Devin Neal (4) were behind him. Neal also appeared to suffer a hamstring injury during the first half of the game. With Kamara possibly missing time early in the season with an MCL injury and now Neal hurt, Miller could begin the 2026 season as the direct handcuff to Etienne. While Kamara isn't expected to miss much time, if any, Miller is still a player to watch on the waiver wire.

Sean Tucker Stakes His Claim to Buccaneers' Goal Line Role

Sunday, August 23, 6:59 AM

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Sean Tucker proved himself a valuable goal-line weapon in 2025, converting four of his nine carries from within the five-yard line into touchdowns, and in Saturday night's preseason win over the Chiefs, he was at it again. With just over 10 minutes remaining in the game, Tucker made a nifty jump cut in the backfield and punched in a one-yard touchdown run that would prove to be the game-winning score. The former undrafted free agent tallied eight total touchdowns in 2025, and if he can hold onto a red-zone role in what projects to be an improved offense, double-digit scores could be on the table in 2026, allowing him to work his way into the weekly flex conversation while simultaneously frustrating Bucky Irving's fantasy managers.
