2024 Fantasy Outlook
Taken in the fifth round in the 2024 Draft, Estime joins a crowded Denver backfield that saw Javonte Williams, Samaje Perine and Jaleel McLaughlin all handle 100 or more touches last season. The Notre Dame product offers a physical, smash-mouth profile the others lack, giving him a clear path to a goal-line role, especially if the Broncos want to try and avoid more wear and tear on Williams' knees. Power backs such as Mark Ingram have thrived in Sean Payton's offense, so there is a template for success for Estime, but he'll need to beat out the competition first. Read Past Outlooks
RANKS
Mixed results in rookie season
Estime finished the 2024 regular season with 76 carries for 310 yards and two touchdowns while catching all five of his targets for 27 yards. He also committed two fumbles (one lost) across 13 games.
ANALYSIS
Estime was inactive for the Broncos' wild-card loss to the Broncos, as Denver opted to go with a three-man running back rotation of Javonte Williams, Jaleel McLaughlin and Tyler Badie. The 21-year-old Estime was stuck in a committee in his rookie campaign, unable to separate himself as the go-to option in the Denver backfield. With that said, the Notre Dame product showed flashes in his limited opportunities throughout the season, so his continued development may help him attain a more secure role in his sophomore campaign. Williams could be in a new locale in 2025, as the veteran is set to become an unrestricted free agent this offseason. His potential departure would leave Estime, McLaughlin and Badie competing to be Denver's lead back. It's also possible the Broncos will address the position in free agency or the 2025 NFL Draft.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Set to be rejoined by McLaughlin
Estime, who led Denver with nine carries in the Week 16 loss to the Chargers, will face more competition for touches on Saturday against the Bengals with Jaleel McLaughlin on track to return from a one-game absence due to a quadricep injury, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Estime impressed at times while recording 48 yards with his nine carries in the loss to Los Angeles. However, the upcoming return of McLaughlin could result in Estime losing out on some opportunities, as McLaughlin was impressive in his last non-injury shortened game back in Week 13 against the Browns, when he carried 14 times for 84 yards. Along with McLaughlin and Estime, Javonte Williams is also expected to factor into Denver's backfield mix Saturday.
