Bhayshul Tuten rushed eight times for 17 yards and a touchdown in the Jaguars' Week 13 win over the Titans, adding one reception for two yards.Tuten operated as the Jaguars' goal line back, coming into the game when Jacksonville would get inside the 10-yard line. He was stuffed on a couple of first quarter runs, but converted for a two-yard rushing score in the third quarter. Liam Coen has established clear roles for Tuten and fellow rookie LeQuint Allen, who is the team's passing-down back. Travis Etienne is the de facto lead back, but Tuten will eat into that workload with red zone work moving forward. Tuten is a valuable handcuff and volatile standalone FLEX play for Week 14 against the Colts.
Travis Etienne rushed 12 times for 28 yards in the Jaguars' Week 13 win over the Titans, adding one reception for 13 yards.The Jaguars went up two scores by halftime and never looked back. Though Etienne still operated as the Jaguars' lead back, this led to less opportunities in the passing game for him. Bhayshul Tuten got the red zone opportunities, so Etienne's role was reduced to an inefficient 2.3 yards per carry. Without a score, this ends up as a bad fantasy day for him, though the manner of usage indicates he is still the top back in the backfield. Tuten will take some red zone usage while LeQuint Allen takes passing-down usage, but Etienne remains an explosive option as both a runner and pass-catcher. He is in the RB2 range for Week 14 against the Colts.
Bhayshul Tuten rushed seven times for 17 yards in the Jaguars' Week 12 win over the Cardinals.Tuten took a backseat to starting RB Travis Etienne until the second half, and even then, Tuten was only mildly involved. The rookie running back looked good on a third-drive carry, maintaining balance while being hit at the line and picking up three extra yards. He looked similarly flashy and physical returning the opening kick in the second half 39 yards, but this stat line is not usable. Tuten is a volatile FLEX against the Titans in Week 13.
Bhayshul Tuten: Cleared for Week 12, as is EtienneTuten (ankle) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Cardinals, Michael DiRocco of ESPN.com reports.
Bhayshul Tuten Will Play Week 12Jaguars 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.
