NFL CAREER – A third-year running back, Estime joined the Saints practice squad in Week Seven of the 2025 campaign and ended up providing a spark to the Saints run game in the final month of the season, utilizing his compact build and ability to power ahead between the tackles. The former Notre Dame standout has played in 20 games with two starts for the Denver Broncos (2024), and Saints (2025), carrying 122 times for 508 yards (4.2 avg.) with three touchdowns, while catching 17 passes for 130 yards (7.6 avg.).

The fifth round draft pick of the Denver Broncos in 2024 out of Notre Dame, who has established himself in the tailback rotation through hard work and persistence, will compete for snaps in the running back room under Head Coach Kellen Moore.
