Jaguars' Travis Etienne: Splits workload to wrap up season
Travis Etienne carried the ball 13 times for 31 yards and caught three of five targets for 29 yards in Sunday's 26-23 overtime loss to the Colts.The third-year back split the backfield workload nearly equally with Tank Bigsby, who turned 15 touches into 42 yards, but the latter also added a one-yard TD plunge to his ledger. Etienne saw a steep drop in his production in 2024 -- after topping 1,000 rushing yards in each of his first two NFL seasons, he managed only 558 yards on 150 totes for a 3.7 YPC while scoring a career-low two touchdowns. Etienne offers more than Bigsby as a receiver, catching 39 of 52 targets for 254 yards this season, and the duo will likely remain in a timeshare to begin 2025.

Jaguars' Travis Etienne: Racks up 75 yards
Travis Etienne rushed the ball 14 times for 49 yards in Sunday's 20-13 win over the Titans. He added one reception on two targets for 26 yards.Etienne's role continues to fluctuate every week, and he recorded a season-high 15 rushing attempts in Sunday's win. That was enough to lead the backfield, as Tank Bigsby was limited to 11 total touches. As has been the case for most of the campaign, Etienne's efficiency on the ground left plenty to be desired, though he did manage long gains of 15 and 11 yards. He also had an impressive 26-yard reception that required him to weave through multiple defenders. Though Etienne's usage is frustrating to predict, he has at least 70 yards from scrimmage in three of his last five games.

Jaguars' Travis Etienne: Held to 37 yards
Travis Etienne rushed the ball nine times for 22 yards in Sunday's 19-14 loss to the Raiders. He added two receptions on three targets for 15 yards.Etienne saw his role diminish with the Jacksonville Jaguars in a tightly contested matchup. He ended up with two fewer touches than Tank Bigsby, though Etienne's inefficiency on the ground was the driving factor in his poor stat line. Etienne is likely to be stuck in a similar role in Week 17 with the Jaguars taking on the Titans in what projects to be a close but low-scoring game.

Jaguars' Travis Etienne: Ties season high of 85 total yards
Travis Etienne rushed 14 times for 65 yards while catching four of five targets for 20 yards in Sunday's 32-25 loss to the Jets.Etienne reclaimed the lead role from Tank Bigsby, finishing with an 18-11 edge in touches after being out-touched, 19-8, by Bigsby against the Titans in Week 14. The week-to-week fluctuations limit both running backs' upside heading into an otherwise favorable Week 16 matchup against the Raiders. Etienne's 85 scrimmage yards against the Jets tied the season high he set back in Week 3 against the Bills.

Jaguars' Travis Etienne: Loses work as rusher
Travis Etienne rushed the ball four times for 20 yards in Sunday's 10-6 win over the Titans. He added four receptions on four targets for 50 yards.Etienne saw his rushing role diminish significantly in Tank Bigsby's second game back from an ankle injury, and he was out-touched 19-8. That will make Etienne tough to trust moving forward for fantasy purposes, though he did show promise as a receiver. He finished third on the team with four targets and second in yardage -- highlighted by a 21-yard catch and run late in the first quarter.

Jaguars' Travis Etienne: Tallies 58 total yards in loss
Travis Etienne rushed 13 times for 46 yards and secured all three targets for 12 yards in the Jacksonville Jaguars' 23-20 loss to the Texans on Sunday.Etienne logged six more carries than backfield mate Tank Bigsby but couldn't muster any remarkable production against a typically stingy Texans run defense. The fourth-year back also was a modest contributor through the air while posting his second straight three-catch tally, but the outlook for all of the Jaguars' skill-position players will take at least a slight hit in a Week 14 road matchup against the Titans with Mac Jones likely filling in for Trevor Lawrence (concussion) in that contest.

Jaguars' Travis Etienne: Struggles with efficiency in loss
Travis Etienne rushed 12 times for 27 yards and brought in all three targets for six yards in the Jacksonville Jaguars' 52-6 loss to the Lions on Sunday.With Tank Bigsby sidelined by an ankle injury, Etienne essentially had all early down work to himself. However, with Mac Jones at quarterback and an unstoppable Lions offense on the other side, Etienne couldn't get much going with his opportunities. The fourth-year back finished with under 50 rushing yards for the fifth consecutive game, and even his highest catch total since Week 5 netted next to nothing in production. Etienne will likely be back in a timeshare with Bigsby in a Week 13 home matchup against the Texans, considering the latter should have a good chance to recover over the Week 12 bye.

Jaguars' Travis Etienne: In line for elevated role
Travis Etienne is slated to be the Jacksonville Jaguars' lead running back Sunday in Detroit with Tank Bigsby (ankle) ruled out for the contest.Etienne acted as the primary RB for most of this past Sunday's loss to the Vikings after Tank Bigsby (ankle) made an early exit, turning 11 carries into 44 yards and his only target into a catch for minus-1 yard. Bigsby wasn't able to practice this week prior to Friday's declaration, and D'Ernest Johnson had a cap on his reps due to a hamstring issue. Considering the situation, Etienne could be in line for a large workload Sunday against a Lions defense that has given up seven TDs (tied for 21st) and 4.19 YPC (21st) to opposing running backs in nine games this season.

Jaguars' Travis Etienne: Steps in as lead back
Travis Etienne rushed the ball 11 times for 44 yards in Sunday's 12-7 loss to the Vikings. He also recorded one catch on one target for negative one yard.Etienne recorded the first carry of the game for the Jacksonville Jaguars, though he appeared destined to continue to split work with Tank Bigsby (ankle). However, Bigsby suffered an injury early in the first quarter and managed to return for only one carry in the second quarter before spending the rest of the game on the sidelines. Even with his highest carry total since Week 4, Etienne failed to make much of an impact, though he did have an apparent touchdown overturned upon review. He could be in line to lead the backfield again in Week 11 against the Lions, pending Bigsby's availability.

Jaguars' Travis Etienne: Ready for Week 10
Travis Etienne (hamstring) doesn't have a designation for Sunday's game versus the Vikings.Both Etienne and Tank Bigsby (ankle) were limited in practice all week, but both running backs will be available to the Jacksonville Jaguars offense Week 10. During this past Sunday's loss at Philadelphia, Etienne earned a 31 percent snap share and had five touches for 30 yards from scrimmage, while Bigsby handled 52 percent of the snaps en route to eight carries for 22 yards. The breakdown between the two should be somewhat similar this weekend.
