Jaguars Rethink Running Game Without Etienne
Description
The Jaguars stunned fans by trading Travis Etienne for a massive four-year, $48 million deal with the Saints — a move that saved them over $14 million in potential franchise tag costs. While Etienne’s stats were solid, his impact didn’t translate to team success, prompting a bold pivot: a cheaper, more efficient running back duo led by Brian Picucci’s new offensive scheme. Chris Rodriguez Jr. and Bhayshul Tuten, both showing promise last season, are now the focus — not as replacements for Etienne, but as complementary pieces to elevate the run game and open up the passing attack. If they deliver, this gamble could pay off big this summer.
