Fantasy Impact
Edwards-Helaire, who was born in and went to college in Louisiana, is returning to New Orleans for 2025. While he was not very involved in 2024, largely due to an extended stint on the non-football illness list due to his battle with PTSD, he did return at the end of the season and could be fully ready for 2025, his sixth NFL season. He has averaged 4.2 yards per carry throughout his career and is a successful pass-catcher, providing depth behind RBs Alvin Kamara and alongside both Kendre Miller and Jamaal Williams (if he remains on the team).

Fantasy Impact
CEH will get a fresh start with a team in need of running back depth after starting RB Alvin Kamara suffered an adductor injury Sunday. CEH will likely split time with Kendre Miller and Jamaal Williams against the Packers, if Kamara is unable to suit up.
