Rewind - A Moment in Jaguars History

These are 1st round pick, James Stewart’s first 3 seasons rushing yards. By week 14 in 1996, Natrone Means became the featured back. In 1997, Means was still the featured back.

1998, Stewart had back to back 100 yard games and then went down with an injury in the 3rd game, which led to Fred Taylor securing the position and never looking back. The Jaguars drafted 3 running backs in 1998, in Taylor, Banks, and Howard.

As a 1st round draft pick, Stewart became a bust after 2 seasons. He played 5 seasons in Jacksonville, and never rushed for more than 1,000 yards in a season. Over that span, the Jaguars acquired Natrone Means, Fred Taylor, Tavian Banks, and Chris Howard.

Banks had the career ending injury, and Taylor was often injured during the 1998 and 1999 seasons, and Chris Howard couldn’t hang on to the football, which allowed Stewart to hang around.

If Travis Etienne’s first 3 seasons ended with 500,700,500, he would be considered a bust also.
