Travis Etienne Jr. Set For Big Day Vs. Panthers

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Travis Etienne Jr. gets a soft Carolina run defense for the fantasy championship in Week 17. It's been tough sledding the former first-round pick of late, with zero top-10 performances in the past seven games after hitting that mark from weeks 5-8. Etienne let managers down in a big way with his lowest output of the season last week in the fantasy semifinals, but he should be trusted for the most important matchup of the year. The Panthers are an atrocious run-stopping unit, ranking 29th to opposing backs and dead last in touchdowns conceded. With starting quarterback Trevor Lawrence ruled out, Etienne will be heavily relied upon to move the chains against Carolina and should put up some gaudy numbers in the fantasy championship. Start him with confidence.
