Jacksonville Jaguars running back Travis Etienne Jr. will look to take back control of the backfield in Week 10 against the Minnesota Vikings. He was questionable earlier in the week due to a hamstring injury but is no longer on the injury report after Friday's practice. Etienne Jr. only earned 31% of the snaps and five touches last week after missing the previous two games. He came into the season as the clear lead back, but due to a combination of underwhelming play and the emergence of backup Tank Bigsby, the backfield situation in Jacksonville is now at best an even split. However, with Trevor Lawrence and the receiving core banged up, both Etienne Jr. and Bigsby could be more involved than usual against the Vikings. Etienne Jr. should be viewed as a solid flex option in Week 10.

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Travis Etienne Jr. (hamstring) was a limited participant in practice on Wednesday. Etienne's limited participation is likely to ensure that he stays fresh ahead of the weekend. Etienne was able to return from the injury in Week 9. He only played 31% of the snaps en route to three carries for 24 yards and two receptions for six yards. Etienne has battled an injury bug all season. He could not shake a shoulder injury early in the season and has been battling this recent hamstring injury in recent weeks. He has been a disappointment in fantasy in 2024 but he has a chance to bounce back as he gets healthier. The emergence of running back Tank Bigsby (ankle) has cut into Etienne's workload but it is hard to believe that he will stick around a 31% snap share each week. If Etienne is able to log a full practice or two this week then fantasy managers should start to feel better about his prospects moving forward. Even so, his Week 10 matchup with the Minnesota Vikings is not ideal. As such, fantasy managers may want to wait and see how Etienne fares on the field before deploying him in starting lineups once again.

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Travis Etienne Jr. only received five total touches in the 28-23 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. He registered three carries for 24 yards and hauled in two of his three targets for six yards. The Eagles' defense not only shut down the run, but they jumped out to a big lead to start the game and the Jaguars had to play catch up for almost the entire time. Etienne saw five fewer carries than backfield mate Tank Bigsby but was more of a factor in the passing game. He'll look to bounce back in Week 10 against the Minnesota Vikings.

Dynasty | Jaguars running back Travis Etienne had 24 rushing yards, two catches and six receiving yards in a loss to the Eagles. Dynasty Analysis: Etienne didn't play the second half and it's fair to wonder if Jacksonville didn't just hold him out in hopes of trading him in the coming days. This has been a nightmare of a season for Etienne and with the Jags sitting at 2-7, they don't have much to play for moving forward. Dynasty managers need to hold on for dear life at the moment, but they need a trade to happen this week to salvage Etienne's crumbling dynasty stock.

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Travis Etienne Jr. (hamstring) has been deemed as active ahead of their late afternoon kickoff. The 25-year-old was expected to play in this one, so it's not a complete surprise, but at least he's been confirmed. Tank Bigsby (ankle) has also been ruled as active, so they'll go back to a timeshare in the backfield. It could be tough sledding though as the Philadelphia Eagles are one of the toughest teams against opposing backfields.

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Travis Etienne Jr. (hamstring) is expected to play against the Philadelphia Eagles despite being listed as questionable, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Etienne has missed the Jaguars' last two games, and during that time, he lost significant ground to Tank Bigsby in the competition for the starting role. It's unclear what the backfield splits will look like this Sunday, but Bigsby figures to get first dibs on the majority share of carries while Etienne nestles into a supplementary role. For the time being, Etienne is not a reliable starter in leagues with 12 or fewer teams.

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Travis Etienne Jr. (hamstring) is considered a game-time decision for Sunday's game against the Philadelphia Eagles according to Mia O'Brien of 92.5 FM. Etienne has been sidelined over the past two weeks with a hamstring injury and has been able to participate in practice in a limited fashion this week. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his progress over the weekend as the Clemson product could be in danger of missing his third-straight contest. If the 25-year-old sits out over the weekend, Tank Bigsby should be in store for another heavy workload. Bigsby has found the end zone twice over the past two weeks and averaged 98.0 rushing yards per game in this span.

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Travis Etienne Jr. (hamstring) was able to get through his second straight limited practice session on Thursday. It sounds like Etienne has a good chance at getting back on the field for the first time since Week 6. Head coach Doug Pederson said that he felt good about Etienne's chances of getting back on the field this week. His return would mean that Tank Bigsby would lose some stream after being the lead back over the last few games. Etienne is more of a flex option because Bigsby might've done enough to make it a 50/50 split in the backfield.

Jacksonville Jaguars head coach Doug Pederson "feels good" about running back Travis Etienne Jr. (hamstring) returning to action in Week 9, as Mia O'Brien of 1010 XL 92.5 XM reported. The fourth-year back has been plagued by a hamstring ailment over the last few weeks that's forced him to miss the team's previous two games and part of another. While his practice participation ahead of Jacksonville's road tilt against the Philadelphia Eagles will be telling regarding his Sunday status, it appears he has a good shot to suit up for the outing. With teammate Tank Bigsby's success and efficiency in the 25-year-old's stead, this backfield might give fantasy managers headaches over the season's final stretch until one emerges as the preferred option.

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Travis Etienne Jr. (hamstring) is officially inactive for Sunday's game against the Green Bay Packers. He had been listed as questionable but was trending in the wrong direction Sunday morning. Etienne will ultimately miss his second consecutive game, creating yet another opportunity for Tank Bigsby to strengthen his hold on the lead-back role in Jacksonville. Bigsby should be treated as a solid fantasy RB2 despite a matchup against the Packers' strong defense.

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Travis Etienne Jr. (hamstring) is a "longshot" to play against the Green Bay Packers in Week 8, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Etienne has battled injuries and poor production this year, dropping him outside the top 36 running backs for fantasy purposes and giving a terrific opportunity to second-year running back Tank Bigsby. With Etienne trending toward being inactive, fantasy managers should expect another huge week from Bigsby. He's a fantasy RB2 despite the tough matchup in Green Bay.

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Travis Etienne Jr. (hamstring) will likely be a game-time decision on Sunday according to Kainani Stevens. Etienne was sidelined last weekend due to a hamstring injury but has been able to participate during Wednesday's and Thursday's practice in a limited capacity which is a promising sign. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his availability during Friday's practice as it may provide clarity heading into the weekend. In his absence last week, Tank Bigsby tallied an impressive 118 yards and two scores off 26 carries. If Etienne is able to suit up, both running backs will likely share the backfield facing the Green Bay Packers who have allowed the 19th-most PPR points to opposing RBs this season.

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Travis Etienne Jr. (hamstring) logged his second consecutive limited practice on Thursday. The 25-year-old picked up the injury during Week 6 in London and hasn't been able to play since then. Although it sounds like he has a real chance to play this Sunday against the Green Bay Packers, Etienne is a risky fantasy play given that Tank Bigsby has seemingly taken over the lead-back role in Jacksonville. The Packers also represent a tough matchup given that their defense has quietly been one of the league's best this year.

Jacksonville Jaguars head coach Doug Pederson said that running back Travis Etienne Jr. (hamstring) is still "day-to-day" with a hamstring injury as the team prepares for a Week 8 tilt against the visiting Green Bay Packers this Sunday. Etienne will do individual drills in practice on Wednesday and will then work with trainers, which means he's likely to be listed as limited on the practice report. The 25-year-old was listed as week-to-week last week and did not play in London in the win over the New England Patriots. As long as he doesn't have any setbacks in practice this week, there's a good chance Etienne will rejoin Jacksonville's backfield this weekend. However, with Tank Bigsby continuing to produce -- he had two more touchdowns in Week 7 -- Etienne might be more of a change-of-pace option for the Jags instead of their leading ball-carrier.

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Travis Etienne Jr. (hamstring) is inactive for Week 7 against the New England Patriots in London. The 25-year-old has been plagued by limited production and injury lately, and now, he's out altogether. This leaves the door open for Tank Bigsby and D'Ernest Johnson to earn additional touches, with the former presumably in line to handle the bulk of the opportunities. Bigsby will rank as an RB3/FLEX against a Patriots defense allowing the fifth-most fantasy points to opposing running backs this season.

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Travis Etienne Jr. (hamstring) is likely to be a game-time decision on Sunday, according to Demetrius Harvey of Florida-Times Union. The 25-year-old was initially deemed week-to-week but now has a chance to suit up on Sunday morning when the Jaguars face the New England Patriots. Etienne has struggled recently after eclipsing double-digit PPR points in the first three weeks of the season. Since then, the Clemson product has averaged just 6.3 PPR points per game and has begun to lose opportunities to Tank Bigsby. If Etienne can play, he should be viewed as a low-end flex option, given his recent struggles.

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Travis Etienne Jr. (hamstring) continues to be limited in practice. Etienne has put in back-to-back limited practices this week after being labeled week-to-week early in the week. He was injured again in the Week 6 loss to the Chicago Bears in London and is up in the air to face the New England Patriots in London this Sunday. Even if the 25-year-old is able to suit up this weekend, he'll most likely see limited touches alongside Tank Bigsby and D'Ernest Johnson, making him hard to trust for fantasy purposes. After Etienne departed last week's game, Johnson played 77% of the offensive snaps. Etienne hasn't been terrible in six games played in 2024, but Bigsby is getting more run and has been more efficient and explosive. Etienne's fantasy stock is trending down, and not just because of his injury.

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Travis Etienne Jr. (hamstring) was a limited participant in practice on Wednesday. The 25-year-old has been on a peculiar stretch of games lately; he saw his rushing workload scaled back in Week 5, and then he only registered three carries last Sunday in London. While his reduced opportunities could be attributed to a new hamstring injury, it's also possible the Jaguars simply preferred Tank Bigsby or D'Ernest Johnson in certain scenarios against the Chicago Bears. As a result, Etienne has become tough to trust in fantasy football, even if the team gives him a clean bill of health. He's merely an RB3/FLEX play for Week 7.

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Travis Etienne Jr. (hamstring) was forced to leave Sunday's game against the Chicago Bears with a hamstring issue and didn't return. Head coach Doug Pederson said on Monday that the 25-year-old is now considered week-to-week. The once bell-cow type of back hasn't seen more than 13 carries in a game this season and finished with six in Week 5 and three in Week 6 before leaving. He even went from 70% snap share in Week 1 down to 38% in Week 5. With Etienne's status unclear, Tank Bigsby will likely take on most of the snap share while D'Ernest Johnson will slot in as the backup.

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Travis Etienne Jr. (hamstring) is questionable to return against the Chicago Bears in Week 6. It's unclear exactly when Etienne picked up the injury, but he hasn't registered an opportunity since dropping a pass early in the second quarter. Between injuries and poor play, Etienne has been an enormous disappointment in fantasy football lately, averaging just 60 scrimmage yards and zero touchdowns between Weeks 4 and 5. Now, if he doesn't return on Sunday, he'll finish Week 6 with three rushes for a loss of one yard on the ground, plus zero catches on one target. Tank Bigsby has suddenly become more dependable than Etienne in fantasy football, and that may hold true even if the latter gets a clean bill of health heading into next Sunday's clash with the Patriots in London.
