Add a league for Mock Drafting, Draft War Room & In-season sync
The Jaguars are trading RB Tank Bigsby to the Eagles. ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that Philly's sending fifth- and sixth-round picks in the 2026 draft to Jacksonville.
No matter how you look at it, Travis Etienne dominated the Week 1 Jacksonville backfield. The rushing numbers are obvious. He racked up a 16-143 rushing line. A 71-yard second-quarter run delivered a big boost; but even without that, his other 15 rushes averaged 4.8 yards. Etienne also played 40 of 66 offensive snaps (60.6%) vs. just 14 for Tank Bigsby, nine for LeQuint Allen, and four for Bhayshul Tuten. Etienne's 15 pass routes also accounted for more than half of the backfield's total. Bigsby and Allen combined for the other 13.
John Shipley of Sports Illustrated believes the Jaguars will look to move either RB Travis Etienne or Tank Bigsby.
Jacksonville's backfield will be one of the most interesting to watch through summer. SI.com Jaguars beat writer weighed in (mildly) this week by positing, "My guess is Travis Etienne is the lead running back." That came as part of a full 53-man roster projection, and he followed that with "but all four get some run at some point." The other three: Tank Bigsby, fourth-round rookie Bhayshul Tuten, and seventh-round rookie LeQuint Allen. The standing seems particularly noteworthy for Etienne because he's been a subject of recent trade rumors.
The Jacksonville Jaguars selected Syracuse RB LeQuint Allen with the 236th pick in the 2025 NFL Draft. Allen is one of the best receiving backs in the 2025 class, notching 103 receptions for 731 yards and five TDs over the past two seasons. He also has two straight 1,000-yard rushing seasons as Syracuse’s primary RB. Allen’s track background equips him with solid speed and change of direction ability to be a rotational back in the NFL. His power and forced missed tackle metrics are underwhelming, though. Among 82 RBs with 150+ carries, Allen ranked 72nd in yards after contact per attempt and 72nd in Pro Football Focus Elusive Rating. There’s also plenty of improvement needed as a pass blocker. Allen is at least on the young side for a rookie, turning just 21 in August.
