Bhayshul Tuten

Tuten's touchdown reception put the Jags up 21-7 in the second quarter. It was also a bit of a red herring, as it ended up being his only target on an afternoon where Travis Etienne somehow stacked up three receiving scores. Etienne is remaining inefficient on the ground, but Tuten is no longer pushing him as a potential 1B option, totaling just four touches over the past two weeks. Tuten might be needed for more work in Week 16 against the Broncos as the Jags try to circumvent their elite pass defense by handing the ball off, but he's lost all RB3/FLEX benefit of the doubt in fantasy leagues.

You wouldn't have expected the first three-score game of Etienne's career to feature zero on the ground, but that's what happened on Sunday in Jacksonville. This was somehow after Bhayshul Tuten notched the Jags backfield's first receiving score, and after they already led 24-10 in the dying moments of the second quarter. Etienne found the end zone from 20, eight and 45 yards out, with the 45-yarder a screen where Etienne found the sideline. The 20-yarder was a Trevor Lawrence dime at the goal line. Although he's been providing better fantasy returns of late, Etienne has bettered 4.0 yards per carry just one time in seven games since the Jags' bye week. The offense's recent improvement will be put to the toughest of tests in a Week 16 road trip to Denver. Etienne will remain a usage-based RB2 for that one.

Jaguars RB Bhayshul Tuten suffered a finger injury in the second half of Sunday's game vs. the Jets and is questionable to return. We'll update the rookie's status when we know more.

His second rushing touchdown was by far his best play of the day, as he deftly found the sideline from the opposite hash and found a wide-open alley to the score. It wasn't exactly a dominant day on the ground for Etienne, but he did dominate the workload as Bhayshul Tuten managed just two carries in a wire-to-wire win for the Jaguars. He'll be a high-end RB2 -- maybe even a low-end RB1 -- for Week 15's slate as he takes on the Jets.

Tuten was evaluated for a concussion after getting his helmet rung on a kickoff return, and then fumbled one of his two carries away to the Colts in the pouring rain. He had just two offensive snaps. We're not sure if he was sent to the bench for the fumble or if he started feeling symptoms, but the Jaguars turned away from him after he fumbled. Without some enthusiastic reports on his health and status, he'll be a hard-to-trust FLEX play in Week 15 despite the smash spot against the Jets.
