Who Should I Start? Kyle Juszczyk or Audric Estime

Monday, December 1, 9:34 PM

San Francisco 49ers fullback Kyle Juszczyk (rib) was forced to exit during the fourth quarter of Sunday's game against the Cleveland Browns. After further evaluation, Juszczyk was diagnosed with a rib fracture. Luckily for San Francisco, Juszczyk will get a week off to rest with the team on a bye in Week 14. Following that, the 49ers will re-evaluate the 34-year-old ahead of their Week 15 matchup versus the Tennessee Titans. There's a chance that Juszczyk won't miss any time, which would be good news for San Fran's offense. As mostly a blocking asset, Juszczyk is not fantasy relevant.

New Orleans Saints running back Audric Estime rushed five times for 19 yards and caught three of four targets for 17 yards in the Week 16 victory over the Jets. Estime was expected to lead the Saints' backfield with Alvin Kamara (knee/ankle) and Devin Neal (hamstring) both sidelined, but it was veteran Taysom Hill who handled a team-high 12 rush attempts. Fellow running back Evan Hull also received just five carries. The usage was concerning for Estime's fantasy outlook, and with Hill heavily involved across all facets of the offense, Estime appears to be more of a complementary back. He profiles as a low-end RB3/Flex option against the Titans in Week 17.
