Travis Etienne Jr. An RB2 For Touch Matchup Ahead

Travis Etienne Jr. An RB2 For Touch Matchup Ahead

11 months ago

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Travis Etienne Jr. faces the stout Tampa Bay Buccaneers run defense on Sunday in a pivotal cross-conference showdown. While Etienne currently ranks as the RB3 on the year, his efficiency has been very poor with a YPC of 3.7, tied for 39th. Touchdowns have been aplenty for Etienne this season, ranking fourth league-wide with 10, but he has his work cut out for him yet again this Sunday when he faces the Bucs who rank in the top-10 in both YPC and total rush yards allowed. With multiple weapons out on offense, Etienne will likely need to be relied upon more than he already is, so he still projects as a solid RB2 with a safe floor. Just don't except top-end numbers in the fantasy semifinals for the former Clemson star.
