Jaguars RB Travis Etienne led the backfield with 86 yards on 15 attempts in Sunday’s win over Arizona. He added 3 catches for 30 yards and his first receiving score since Week 2.

Jaguars RB Bhayshul Tuten (ankle) is not listed on the final Week 12 injury report. He was limited in practice all week but is evidently in no danger of missing Sunday’s game vs. the Cardinals. Tuten was in the midst of a big Week 11 before going down with the ankle injury, out-carrying RB Travis Etienne 15 to 12 and averaging 4.9 yards per carry. There’s no guarantee that Tuten will have a similar role this weekend, leaving him as a risky fantasy play. But his availability certainly dents Etienne’s Week 12 outlook.

Jaguars RB Bhayshul Tuten (ankle) got in a limited practice on Wednesday. That seemingly gives him a real chance to play vs. the Cardinals this weekend. Tuten worked in a timeshare alongside RB Travis Etienne last week, playing just four fewer snaps and out-carrying Etienne 15 to 12 before exiting with the ankle injury. And the rookie was awesome, averaging 4.9 yards per carry and scoring a four-yard TD. It's unclear if that was a one-game blip or the start of a trend in Jacksonville's backfield. And the ankle would add risk to Tuten's Week 12 profile. But we'll continue to keep an eye on the rookie's health over the next few days.

The Jaguars scored all three of their TDs on the ground in Sunday's win over the Raiders, but lead RB Travis Etienne got none of them. QB Trevor Lawrence scored from 7 yards out early in the fourth quarter and then again from a yard out in OT. RB Bhayshul Tuten scored the other rushing TD from a yard out, also in the fourth quarter. And that score came in a particularly bothersome spot. Etienne sound up with 84 rushing yards on 22 carries and a nice 5-31 receiving line on five targets.

After a slow start to his rookie season, No. 2 overall pick Travis Hunter had his breakout game in London. Hunter caught 8 balls for 101 yards and his first NFL TD in Jacksonville's 35-7 loss against the Rams. Those were easily the best numbers of Hunter's career, as were the 14 targets he commanded.

Jaguars RB Travis Etienne Jr. ran for a season-low 27 yards in Sunday's loss to the Seahawks. He averaged just 2.3 yards across 12 carries but did help his PPR line with 4 receptions for 28 yards among five targets. This marked Etienne's second straight week with just 12 carries and setting a season-low in rushing yardage. That would be more worrisome if not for a couple of key factors.

Jaguars RB Travis Etienne rushed 14 times for 71 yards in Sunday's loss to the Bengals. He added 2 catches, 18 yards, and 1 score through the air.

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.

Jaguars RB Travis Etienne got the start in Jacksonville’s preseason game against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Saturday. Despite a potential RB competition, Etienne played every snap with Jacksonville’s starting offense. Etienne could be the best fit for HC Liam Coen’s offense, according to John Shipley of Sports Illustrated.

Tank Bigsby has been the Jaguars' best RB and has received the most first-team touches in training camp so far, according to multiple beat writers. Sports Illustrated's John Shipley wrote that Friday's practice was the "Tank Bigsby Show."

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.
