Audric Estime Week 16 Outlook - Jets at Saints

By Derek Brown (FantasyPros), Sat, Dec 20th 2025, 3:35am EST

Audric Estime is an interesting flex play this week with Alvin Kamara out. Estime will likely split the backfield work with Evan Hull this week. Last week, in the second half, Estime played 52.8% of the snaps with a 46.4% route share, finishing with six touches and 50 total yards. Evan Hull had both of the red zone carries last week, but that could have been circumstantial with who was rotating in on that drive. I'll lean on Estime's snap and route share last week as the possible lead back for this offense in Week 16, but is there volatility and risk playing him this week? Absolutely. Estime could pay off nicely this week, though. Since Week 11, New York has allowed the ninth-most rushing yards per game, the tenth-highest explosive run rate, and the third-most yards after contact per attempt.
