    Is Audric Estimé Playing vs. the Bills?

    Estimé is not listed on the injury report this week, so barring any setbacks, he is on track to play this weekend.

    We’ll continue to monitor the Broncos’ injury report. You can also visit and bookmark our NFL Injury Tracker and Fantasy News Tracker for the latest updates.

    Should You Start or Sit Audric Estimé on Wild Card Weekend?

    Estimé has scored in two of his past three games, but you’d have to really be looking to be different to go this direction with Denver being such a big underdog.

    NFL dropback rates, 2015-24:

    • Trailing: 67.7%
    • Tied: 58.2%
    • Leading: 51.7%

    Rushing attempts could be limited for the Broncos, and that’s a death sentence when it comes to any hope for Estimé. Is it true that a running back in a Sean Payton scheme can scam his way to PPR points? It sure is, but we have no proof that the rookie would be used in such a role.

    In a blowout win over the Falcons, he caught three passes in five plays – he has two other catches on his NFL résumé. We are looking at a player who doesn’t have a touch gaining 10+ yards in two months and projects for, at best, 6-8 touches.

    I’m fine with targeting uncertainty in a playoff setting, but we seem to have a level of certainty in Estimé not being a consistent part of this offense.
