From the article

It should be noted New Orleans was without Alvin Kamara (knee) in this one and theoretical competition for the No. 2 role in Ty Chandler (knee) and Audric Estime (thigh) are both on injured reserve, but that Miller got multiple red-zone touches, converting one for a touchdown in the frantic fourth-quarter comeback, is absolutely something to monitor. Miller played just 26 snaps compared to Travis Etienne's 50, but the larger takeaway to me is the uneven footing Etienne might be on if Kamara comes back and usurps him as a pass catcher.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalRole

Miller's red-zone work is temporary; his value depends on Kamara's injury timeline.

Miller got multiple red-zone touches and converted one for a touchdown in the Saints' Week 1 comeback, though he played just 26 snaps compared to Travis Etienne's 50. The larger concern is that Etienne may be on uneven footing if Alvin Kamara returns and usurps him as a pass catcher. Miller lacks longevity as a fantasy asset given Kamara's eventual return, but Baltimore's defense was gashed by the rushing attack in Week 1, and the Saints may rely on the ground game in Week 2 to protect against another fourth-quarter comeback scenario.
