I don’t think Etienne has a place on the team. They might do a 1 year deal to provide insurance at the RB position. After back to back 1400 all-purpose yard seasons he had just 812 yards with only 558 yards rushing. Etienne only scored 2 touchdowns in 2024, after scoring 17 touchdowns over the last 2 seasons prior.

Career long rush in 2022 was 62 yards and added another 62 yard run in 2023. His longest rush in 2024 was 22 yards, while starting 15 games.

I can get 558 yards rushing with 2 TD from an undrafted rookie, but Etienne has shown he can be explosive and create mis-matches in the passing game. He’s also a low-mileage back that’s capable of giving you double digit touchdowns.

Which ever way they decide to go, I’ll be ok with it because either way Bigsby is primed for a breakout year. Bigsby started just 1 game last year and was 234 yards shy of a 1,000 yard season, with 7 rushing touchdowns. Probably could’ve got 9 or 10 if he started full time.

Etienne ranks 4th on the Jaguars all-time rush list with 2691 yards.
