Jaguars' Travis Etienne: Quiet close to regular season
Rotowire
Etienne rushed the ball 14 times for 32 yards in Sunday's 41-7 win over the Titans. He added one reception on one target for six yards.
Etienne had a very strong regular season, though Sunday served as a disappointing close. He logged a long rush of 11 yards, but eight of his 14 attempts on the ground picked up two or fewer yards. Etienne was also limited to only one target for just the third time this season and ultimately ended up with limited volume after being pulled early in the fourth quarter. If there was a positive point to note, he was able to surpass 1,100 rushing yards for the first time since 2022, his second season as a pro. Etienne should be in line for a bounce-back effort in the wild-card round, though it is still undetermined who the Jaguars will face.

Jaguars' Travis Etienne: Racks up 92 yards on 19 touches
Rotowire
Etienne rushed 17 times for 76 yards and caught two of three targets for 16 yards in Sunday's 23-17 win over the Colts.
Both of Jacksonville's touchdowns came on Trevor Lawrence touchdown runs, as Etienne was held out of the end zone after scoring five rushing touchdowns and five receiving touchdowns over the previous seven games. Etienne has handled at least 15 touches in all but two games this season, and he's likely to see another hefty workload in Week 18 against the Titans. Jacksonville would clinch the AFC South crown with a win over Tennessee or a Texans loss to the Colts.

Jaguars' Travis Etienne: Another receiving score
Rotowire
Etienne rushed the ball 16 times for 50 yards in Sunday's 34-20 win over the Broncos. He added four receptions on five targets for 16 yards and a touchdown.
Etienne wasn't particularly efficient in his capacity as a rusher or a receiver, but he still managed a solid performance on 20 total touches while benefiting from the absence of Bhayshul Tuten (finger). His longest gain on the ground nearly resulted in a touchdown, as he went for 24 yards midway through the second quarter before being tackled at the three-yard line. Etienne then managed to reach the end zone on Jacksonville's second possession of the second half, catching a short pass before making a defender miss in the open field for a 10-yard trip to the end zone. Etienne has been inefficient as a runner this season, but he has 10 total touchdowns across his last seven games to remain a very consistent fantasy contributor.

Jaguars' Travis Etienne: Three TD catches against Jets
Rotowire
Etienne rushed 12 times for 32 yards while catching three of four targets for 73 yards and three touchdowns in Sunday's 48-20 win over the Jets.
Etienne more than made up for a modest performance on the ground by recording touchdown receptions of 20, eight and 45 yards. The first of those three scores came 21 seconds before halftime, and Etienne scored once each in the third and fourth quarters. Etienne has been a key part of Jacksonville's recent surge, with nine total touchdowns over the team's last six games heading into a Week 15 road matchup against Denver's stout defense.

Jaguars' Travis Etienne: Two touchdowns in blowout win
Rotowire
Etienne rushed the ball 20 times for 74 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 36-19 win over the Colts. He added one reception on one target for eight yards.
While he was helped by a brief Bhayshul Tuten absence, Etienne dominated the work out of Jacksonville's backfield and topped 20 carries for only the second time this season. He was very efficient with his work in the first half, scoring twice from three and 28 yards away while also turning in an additional long run of 11 yards. Etienne lost much of that efficiency in the second half as Jacksonville was running out the clock, but he still managed to top 70 rushing yards for the fourth time in his last six games.

Jaguars' Travis Etienne: Can't get going in easy win
Rotowire
Etienne rushed the ball 12 times for 28 yards in Sunday's 25-3 win over the Titans. He added one reception on one target for 13 yards.
The Jaguars dominated the game on the scoreboard, but their offensive showing wasn't all that impressive. The running game was the primary culprit, as Etienne matched his lowest yards-per-rush mark of the season, and his longest gain on the ground went for only six yards. The lone positive was that he worked as the clear lead back ahead of Bhayshul Tuten, though Etienne did cede several carries around the goal line to the rookie.

Jaguars' Travis Etienne: RBs to Start
Rotowire
Despite concerns of Bhayshul Tuten having a bigger role in Week 12 at Arizona, Etienne still had 15 carries for 86 yards and three catches for 30 yards and a touchdown on four targets. He played 65 percent of the snaps, which was his highest total since Week 2, and Etienne should be locked into your lineups as a No. 1 Fantasy running back in all leagues. The Titans are also No. 8 in most Fantasy points allowed to opposing running backs and No. 2 in most rushing touchdowns allowed to the position with 13. Eight running backs have scored at least 13.1 PPR points against Tennessee this season, and Etienne will hopefully add to that total in Week 13.

Jaguars' Travis Etienne: Productive as RB1 in OT win
Rotowire
Etienne (shoulder) took 15 carries for 86 yards while catching three of four targets for 30 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 27-24 overtime win against Arizona.
Etienne and Bhayshul Tuten (ankle) both shed their respective injury tags from last week's win over the Chargers, but it was the former who dominated the backfield touches against the Cardinals on Sunday. Tuten (7-17-0) struggled in his limited role, while Etienne more than doubled his teammate's touches with greater efficiency overall. This comes as a relief for Etienne's fantasy managers after the talented rushing duo split work evenly in last week's victory. Etienne will look to keep the good times rolling against the lowly Titans next Sunday after hitting pay dirt four times over his last three contests.

Jaguars' Travis Etienne: Taking part in non-contact practice
Rotowire
Etienne (shoulder) is handling non-contact reps at Thursday's practice, Ryan O'Halloran of The Florida Times-Union reports.
Etienne appears set to log as second consecutive limited practice to begin Week 12 preparations, meaning his status will need to be closely monitored leading up to Sunday's road matchup against the Patriots. Bhayshul Tuten (ankle) was also limited Wednesday, and before the rookie was forced out versus the Chargers in Week 11 due to injury he and Etienne had split backfield reps nearly evenly.

Jaguars' Travis Etienne: Limited at Wednesday's practice
Rotowire
Etienne (shoulder) and Bhayshul Tuten (ankle) both were limited participants in practice Wednesday.
The two running backs worked in a near-even split until Tuten left Sunday's 35-6 win over the Chargers with an ankle injury. Etienne apparently also picked up an injury along the way, which may or may not be part of the reason that Tuten had a much larger role relative to recent weeks. Whatever the case, Etienne was never announced with an injury during the game and played into the fourth quarter before handing things over to passing-down specialist LeQuint Allen in garbage time. Wednesday's practice report suggests all may be available Week 12 at Arizona.

Jaguars' Travis Etienne: Pair of rush TDs in win
Rotowire
Etienne rushed 19 times for 73 yards and two touchdowns and failed to bring in either of his two targets in the Jaguars' 35-6 win over the Chargers on Sunday.
Etienne was sharing plenty of work with Bhayshul Tuten (ankle) early on , but the latter ended up exiting the contest due to injury. That opened up more opportunity for Etienne, who contributed two- and 13-yard scoring runs for his first multi-TD game of the season. Etienne's yardage total was also his second highest since Week 4, and he could be in for a significant workload in a Week 12 road matchup against the Cardinals.

Jaguars' Travis Etienne: Contrarian DFS Play
Rotowire
Etienne remains one of the most underrated running backs in Fantasy. He has 47 opportunities in the Jaguars' two games since the bye, and his recent pass game involvement insulates him from a bad game script. He has 21 targets in his last five games, and the Chargers have given up 23 catches to running backs in their last five games.

Jaguars' Travis Etienne: Gets into end zone in loss
Rotowire
Etienne carried the ball 16 times for 58 yards and a touchdown and caught two of four targets for 19 yards in Sunday's 36-29 loss to the Texans.
The fourth-year RB produced the Jaguars' last score of the afternoon on a six-yard run in the third quarter, giving the team a 29-10 lead that shockingly evaporated in the fourth. Etienne ended a four-game TD drought in the process, and on the season he's amassed 786 scrimmage yards and four total touchdowns (three rushing, one receiving) through nine contests. He'll look to keep rolling in Week 11 against the Chargers.

Jaguars' Travis Etienne: RBs to Start
Rotowire
Etienne struggled going into his bye in Week 8 with 9.5 PPR points or less in his three previous games, but that was against some of the best run defenses in Kansas City, Seattle and the Rams. Prior to that, Etienne scored at least 16.9 PPR points in three of his first four games, and I'm hoping we get that level of performance against the Raiders. A running back has scored at least 13.1 PPR points against Las Vegas in four of the past five games, with eight touchdowns over that span, and I like Etienne as a solid No. 2 Fantasy running back in all leagues for Week 9.

Jaguars' Travis Etienne: Just nine touches Sunday
Rotowire
Etienne carried the ball eight times for 44 yards and caught one of three targets for 11 yards in Sunday's 35-7 loss to the Rams.
While the fourth-year back was effective with his touches, Etienne got phased out of the game plan in the second half after the Jaguars fell behind 21-0 before halftime. Heading into the team's Week 8 bye, Etienne sports an impressive 594 scrimmage yards and three total TDs through seven contests.

Jaguars' Travis Etienne: Stymied in Week 6 loss
Rotowire
Etienne rushed 12 times for 27 yards and brought in four of five targets for 28 yards in the Jaguars' 20-12 loss to the Seahawks on Sunday.
Etienne was absolutely stonewalled on the ground by a talented Seahawks front seven, although he was able to partly atone for the shortfall with a solid day through the air that saw him post new season highs in receptions, receiving yards and targets. The fifth-year back now has back-to-back 12-carry tallies after opening the season with at least 14 rush attempts in each of the first four games, but he remains the Jaguars' unquestioned No. 1 back and next faces a Rams defense that was gashed by the Ravens' Derrick Henry in Week 6.

Jaguars' Travis Etienne: Tallies 58 total yards in win
Rotowire
Etienne rushed 12 times for 49 yards and brought in three of four targets for nine yards in the Jaguars' 31-28 win over the Chiefs on Monday night.
Etienne logged his lowest carry total of the campaign, which also led to a new low-water mark in rushing yards. The talented back also failed to record a double-digit-yardage run for the first time in five contests, but he reemerged in the passing game to an extent after mustering just a single reception for one yard on four targets in the previous pair of contests. Etienne draws another challenging matchup when the Seahawks pay a visit for a Week 6 interconference matchup Sunday afternoon.

Jaguars' Travis Etienne: Salvages day with TD
Rotowire
Etienne rushed 16 times for 56 yards and a touchdown and failed to bring in either of his two targets in the Jaguars' 17-10 win over the Texans on Sunday.
Etienne found running room at a premium against a talented Texans front, but he was able to rescue fantasy managers from a washout by recording a 10-yard touchdown run with just under two minutes remaining. The score, Etienne's first on the ground in 2025, delivered what would prove to be the game-winning points. Etienne has seen his rushing yardage total drop in each of the last two contests after opening the season with a 143-yard effort against the Panthers, a trend he'll aim to reverse in a Week 4 road interconference clash against the 49ers.

Jaguars' Travis Etienne: RBs to Start
Rotowire
Etienne is going to share touches with Bhayshul Tuten, who is worth using as a sleeper in deeper leagues, but I like Etienne as a No. 2 Fantasy running back in all formats. He's scored at least 16.9 PPR points in each of his first two games against Carolina and Cincinnati, and he has at least 16 total touches in each outing, with five total receptions. The Texans have allowed three running backs to score at least 13.9 PPR points through two games, and Bucky Irving and Rachaad White just combined for eight receptions for 51 yards on eight targets against Houston in Week 2.

Jaguars' Travis Etienne: Rings up receiving TD in loss
Rotowire
Etienne rushed 14 times for 71 yards and brought in two of three targets for 18 yards and a touchdown in the Jaguars' 31-27 loss to the Bengals on Sunday.
Etienne went a long way toward proving his breakout Week 1 performance was no fluke, as he averaged 5.1 yards per carry while comfortably pacing the Jaguars in rush attempts and rushing yards. The versatile veteran also made his mark as a receiver via an 11-yard touchdown catch with just over four minutes remaining in the third quarter, his first score of any kind in the new season. With ex-backfield mate Tank Bigsby now in Philadelphia, Etienne looks entrenched as the clear-cut No. 1 back in head coach Liam Coen's productive offense going into a Week 3 home divisional matchup against the Texans next Sunday.
