Etienne finished with 14.8 PPR points last week, despite getting just 49 percent of snaps and 50 percent of the Saints' RB opportunities before halftime... This week, Kamara is back... it might not work out in this game if many of last week's routes/targets shift to Kamara instead. I'll also add that last week's disappointing early usage raises some questions about how the coaches view Etienne, Kamara and Kendre Miller.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalRole

Etienne's role uncertain with Kamara's return; early-down snaps may not offset target shift.

Etienne finished with 14.8 PPR points in Week 1 despite getting just 49% of snaps and 50% of Saints RB opportunities before halftime. With Alvin Kamara returning this week, Etienne should get more snaps on early downs (which is generally positive), but routes/targets may shift to Kamara instead. Last week's disappointing early usage raises questions about how coaches view Etienne, Kamara, and Kendre Miller. The source is not ready to bury Etienne after one week but notes it's fair to question preseason assumptions about his role.
