Miller's per-tough rushing efficiency has been putrid, though. He has only a 2.4% explosive run rate, 1.73 yards after contact per attempt, and a 12% missed tackle rate.

Miller's putrid efficiency and game-script risk limit upside despite early-down volume.

The Saints' backfield has dissolved into a gross three-way committee with Kendre Miller handling the bulk of the early-down work. Last week, he finished with 22 touches (20 carries) and 70 total yards with a 45.6% snap rate, 52.6% of the rushing work, and a 15.6% route share (6.7% target share). Derek Brown views Miller as a viable flex option again this week, but notes his per-touch rushing efficiency has been putrid: only a 2.4% explosive run rate, 1.73 yards after contact per attempt, and a 12% missed tackle rate. If the Saints are playing from behind this week, Miller could easily get gamescripted out of the Week 7 action. Miller needs the Saints to play with a lead and a touchdown to likely pay off for fantasy purposes, both questionable propositions in Week 7.
