Bhayshul Tuten Fantasy Stats

Jacksonville Jaguars rookie running back Bhayshul Tuten (finger) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's Week 18 matchup against the Tennessee Titans. Tuten has missed back-to-back games because of his finger injury, but he is ready to return this weekend. The rookie back figures to resume his role as the primary backup to Travis Etienne Jr. in the backfield. The Jaguars can clinch the AFC South title with a win over the Titans this weekend or a loss by the Houston Texans. That means the Jags should play their starters during this regular-season finale. Tuten should see a handful of carries as he returns from injury, but it's unlikely to be enough to warrant streaming him.

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Bhayshul Tuten (finger) has been downgraded from questionable to out for his team's Week 17 matchup against the Indianapolis Colts, per ESPN's Adam Schefter. Tuten was a limited practice participant all week, but he will end up missing his second straight game due to a finger injury. Before getting hurt, the 22-year-old had recorded 284 rushing yards and four touchdowns on 78 carries across 14 games while playing the RB2 role in Jacksonville behind veteran back Travis Etienne Jr. With Tuten sidelined in Week 16, Etienne Jr. logged 20 touches and played 70% of the Jaguars' offensive snaps against the Denver Broncos. Rookie back LeQuint Allen Jr. recorded four touches against the Broncos and appears likely to handle RB2 duties for the second straight week against Indianapolis.

Jacksonville Jaguars rookie running back Bhayshul Tuten (finger) is listed as questionable for Sunday's divisional title against the Indianapolis Colts. The 23-year-old rookie was unable to suit up in Week 16 due to this finger injury, but appears to be nearing a return. This week, the Virginia Tech product logged three-straight limited practice sessions, which leaves the door open for a return on Sunday. Managers should keep a close eye on his status leading up to Sunday's contest. Throughout his debut season, Tuten has remained in a change-of-pace role behind workhorse Travis Etienne Jr., as he has only logged double-digit carries in one contest. Even if Tuten can play, he remains a low-end RB4 given his minimal projected role. Etienne is expected to remain the primary running back in this offense and carry high-end RB2 upside facing the Colts.

Jacksonville Jaguars rookie running back Bhayshul Tuten (finger) was spotted wearing a non-contact jersey during the portion of practice on Wednesday that was open to the media, according to Demetrius Harvey of Jaguars.com. Tuten will likely be listed as limited on Wednesday's injury report, the first of Week 17. The 23-year-old change-of-pace back missed the Week 16 win over the Denver Broncos after having surgery for a finger injury, but his return to the field this week suggests he might be in play to return this Sunday for a divisional clash against the Indianapolis Colts. Travis Etienne Jr. remains Jacksonville's clear lead back, but Tuten has shown flashes of explosiveness out of the Jags' backfield in his first 14 NFL games. The fourth-rounder has 284 rushing yards and four touchdowns on 78 carries and has added 10 catches for 79 yards and two more scores. If Tuten is back in the fold on Sunday against Indy, he'll be flex-worthy in fantasy championship matchups.

Jacksonville Jaguars rookie running back Bhayshul Tuten (finger) was a non-participant at Wednesday's practice session. Tuten suffered a right-finger injury during Sunday's win over the New York Jets. The rookie running back is likely going to require surgery to repair his right-finger injury. If that happens, Tuten is expected to miss multiple weeks of action and possibly the final three weeks of the regular season. His absence would likely mean a larger role for Travis Etienne Jr. in the backfield. Rookie LeQuint Allen Jr. will also be asked to step up as the backup to Etienne. Allen has been quiet with 81 yards on 18 attempts this season as the third-string back. There's a chance he offers deep-league fantasy value if Tuten is unable to play against the Denver Broncos in Week 16.

Jacksonville Jaguars rookie running back Bhayshul Tuten (finger) will have surgery to fix a finger injury that he suffered in Sunday's blowout win over the New York Jets, sources told Mike Garafolo of NFL Network. Tuten will miss a few weeks but should be back for the playoffs. There are only three games remaining in the regular season, so the Jags might shut Tuten down until the start of the postseason. The 22-year-old fourth-round selection has been a nice, explosive complement in Jacksonville's backfield this season next to starter Travis Etienne Jr., carrying the ball 78 times for 284 yards (3.6 yards per tote) and four rushing touchdowns, adding 10 catches for 79 yards and two more scores in 14 games. Tuten touched the ball only twice on Sunday, but one of those touches resulted in a one-yard TD reception. Fellow rookie LeQuint Allen Jr. will serve in the RB2 role for the Jags behind Etienne for however long Tuten is sidelined.

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Bhayshul Tuten has had a disappointing few weeks after a season-high 74 rushing yards in Week 11, but hope springs eternal this weekend thanks to a date with the Jets' generous rush defense. Pessimists will point to Tuten's failure to crack 20 total yards in each of the last three games, while optimists can hang their hat on how complementary backs have fared against the Jets lately. Both Jaylen Wright and Ollie Gordon II scored last week, while Tyler Allgeier found paydirt the week before that, and all after the elite starters had scored themselves. It's been a few weeks since Tuten has appeared on Jacksonville's injury report with an ankle issue, so we must assume he's in a position to capitalize here. There's no skirting the low floor that he's shown in recent games, but Tuten's potential ceiling in a game that Jacksonville could run away with makes for a mighty double-edged sword for those needing a flex play to wield.

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Bhayshul Tuten had an underwhelming game in Week 14, recording just two carries for five yards against the Indianapolis Colts. Tuten briefly exited the game and was evaluated for a concussion before being cleared to return. Still, the injury scare could be a reason why his workload was limited against the Colts. Tuten's upside is limited by the presence of veteran Jaguars back Travis Etienne Jr., who remains the clear RB1 in Jacksonville. However, Tuten has flashed upside this season, recording 277 rushing yards and four touchdowns on 77 carries across 13 games. If Etienne Jr. were to miss time due to injury, Tuten would be in line for a significant role increase. Heading into his Week 15 matchup against the New York Jets, Tuten should be rostered as a high-end handcuff option in all fantasy leagues with 12 or more teams.

Jacksonville Jaguars rookie running back Bhayshul Tuten (head) has been cleared to return to his team's Week 14 matchup against the Indianapolis Colts. Tuten briefly exited the game and was evaluated for a concussion, but evidently the rookie running back passed the necessary tests to return to the field. The Jaguars have split backfield playing time this season between Tuten, Travis Etienne Jr., and LeQuint Allen Jr., with Etienne Jr. serving as the team's feature back. Jacksonville may be cautious with Tuten's workload for the remainder of Week 14, but he has been cleared of a concussion.

The Jacksonville Jaguars said rookie running back Bhayshul Tuten (head) is being evaluated for a concussion during the team's home game against the Indianapolis Colts. The rookie did not have a catch or a carry at the time of his departure, but took a big hit on a kickoff return. Travis Etienne has handled all of the Jags' rushing efforts, which included two first-half touchdowns. Tuten has mostly been a stash in dynasty formats, so the injury shouldn't have too much impact on managers looking to optimize their rosters before the playoffs in standard formats.
