Travis Etienne Injury Update for Fantasy Football
Etienne was reported to be a limited participant for Wednesday's practice as he is dealing with a rib injury, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.
This was the same rib injury that Etienne was dealing with all throughout Week 13, but ultimately was able to play in Monday's loss against the Bengals. This points to the direction that Etienne will be good-to-go for the Week 14 matchup against the Browns but this will defiantly be a situation to monitor as fantasy managers are scrambling before the playoffs.
If Etienne for some reason is unable to play against the Browns, look for Tank Bigsby to see an increased role in the Jaguars backfield.
Travis Etienne Fantasy Football Outlook
Despite being limited in Wednesday's practice, fantasy managers are still wondering where Etienne's fantasy value stands for Week 14.
With franchise quarterback Trevor Lawrence going down with an ankle injury in Week 13, there is a strong possibility that Jacksonville will be without their quarterback. This means that Doug Pederson and the Jaguars' offense will need to lean on Etienne and the rush game. Etienne has been a very suitable running back option this season and continued to showcase his success last week when he totaled 15.9 fantasy points in half-PPR formats.
This week, Etienne draws a difficult matchup against the Cleveland Browns, who rank second in the NFL in fewest rushing yards allowed this season. Despite the hard matchup and the Jaguars being without their quarterback, Etienne will still see his usual workload and the end zone touches. Etienne can be viewed as a RB2 in Week 14.
