Etienne eligible to return Week 9; Saints' 18-yard rushing performance shows his impact.

Etienne is currently on injured reserve due to a hamstring strain and is eligible to return Week 9 against the Cleveland Browns. His absence has been extremely noticeable in the Saints' rushing attack, which managed only 18 total rushing yards against Pittsburgh. The source notes his return will add explosiveness and home-run play ability to a backfield that desperately needs both, though it cautions that one player alone may not completely transform an offense with broader systemic problems including offensive line struggles.
