Travis Etienne Jr. News
Thursday, October 1, 12:40 PM
The New Orleans Saints are placing running back Travis Etienne Jr. (hamstring) on Injured Reserve with a hamstring injury, per Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football. Etienne Jr. will now miss the Saints' next four games at least, leaving him ineligible to return before Week 9. The 27-year-old had gotten off to a slow start to his first season in New Orleans, recording 30 carries for 128 yards and 11 catches for 51 yards on 13 targets across the first three weeks of 2026. With Etienne Jr. sidelined, the Saints will likely split backfield work between Alvin Kamara, Kendre Miller, and CJ Donaldson. Kamara is obviously the most established back between the three, but he's 31 years old and has averaged 2.8 yards per carry so far this year. In leagues where he's not already rostered, Miller could be a worthy waiver wire target for fantasy managers.

Quinshon Judkins News
Thursday, October 22, 1:18 PM
Cleveland Browns running back Quinshon Judkins (ankle) was limited in practice again on Thursday for the second straight day, according to Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer. An ankle injury caused Judkins to miss the Week 6 win over the division-rival Baltimore Ravens, but barring a setback in practice on Friday, the 22-year-old second-year back is on the right track to return this weekend when the Browns go on the road to take on the Tennessee Titans. In addition to Judkins, Dylan Sampson (knee) was limited for a second straight day and is on track to come off Injured Reserve to play on Sunday. It is good news for Cleveland's backfield after they were down to Jaleel McLaughlin and Audric Estime in the upset win over the Ravens. Judkins has been inefficient so far in his sophomore season with 3.0 yards per carry, but he is trending up as an RB2 play for fantasy managers against the Titans as the Browns' starting running back.
