ANALYSIS: New Orleans Saints running back Kendre Miller has struggled to stay healthy. He has played in only five contests this season because of multiple injuries. The former TCU star is the RB82 for the year, averaging 4.8 half-point PPR fantasy points per game. He has one rushing touchdown this year.

Many called Miller a must-start running back in Week 16 with Alvin Kamara (groin) out of the lineup. Unfortunately, he only had 10 touches for 31 scrimmage yards and 4.1 fantasy points against the Green Bay Packers. Furthermore, Miller was outscored by Jordan Mims (5.7 vs. 4.1).
However, the second-year pro is a solid flex option in Week 17 if Kamara misses his second consecutive game with the groin injury. Miller faces a Las Vegas Raiders defense that has surrendered 126.7 rushing yards and 21.6 fantasy points per game to running backs over the past three weeks.
