Audric Estimé vs Jawhar JordanWho should you start in 2026 fantasy football?

Audric Estimé is the better fantasy start for 2026, averaging 8.4 PPG to Jawhar Jordan's 6.6 in 2025. Full head to head breakdown below.

The Bottom Line

Audric Estimé is the better fantasy play this season.

Audric Estimé has the edge, but it is not a runaway. The 1.8-PPG advantage is real (8.4 to 6.6), and Audric Estimé's 1 touchdowns show scoring upside. Jawhar Jordan is the buy-low candidate if recent production has dipped, because the talent gap is smaller than the numbers suggest.

Low confidence: the production gap is narrow enough that weekly context matters more than the season line.

Fantasy Tiers

Audric Estimé: Tier 4 (Bench/Bye Fill) RB (ranked #35 at the position). Jawhar Jordan: Tier 5 (Deep League) RB (ranked #50 at the position).

That ranking gap means Audric Estimé carries more trade value and a higher draft cost in 2026.

Audric Estimé vs Jawhar Jordan: The Full Breakdown

Audric Estimé and Jawhar Jordan are both viable fantasy running backs heading into 2026, but their 2025 production tells two different stories. Audric Estimé averaged 8.4 PPG across 5 games with the New Orleans Saints, while Jawhar Jordan posted 6.6 PPG in 4 appearances for the Houston Texans.

A 1.8-PPG gap gives Audric Estimé the edge on paper, but paper does not account for Thursday night matchups, weather games, or a star defender returning from injury. The real question is not who was better in 2025, but who is the better start this specific week.

Both profile as early-down workhorses. Audric Estimé ran for 198 yards and 1 touchdowns; Jawhar Jordan posted 193 and undefined. Goal-line share, red zone touches, and which team is favored are usually the tiebreaker when neither back offers passing-game volume.

One thing to note: both players share a Week 8 bye. That means you need a backup plan at running back for that week, especially if one of these two is your starter.

Trade Value + Dynasty Outlook

Both are in a similar trade value range. A straight swap would be fair in most leagues, with the tiebreaker going to whichever manager values schedule or bye week more. Dynasty outlook: Audric Estimé (age 22) has not yet hit the RB cliff. High dynasty ceiling if volume holds. Jawhar Jordan (age 26) is approaching the age where RB production historically drops. Sell-high window is open.
