Bhayshul Tuten Fantasy Stats

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.

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Bhayshul Tuten experienced a breakout performance during the Week 11 contest against the Los Angeles Chargers. The rookie back rushed 15 times for 74 yards and a touchdown during the victory. Outside of that, Tuten has been held to under 45 rushing yards in every other game. He remains the No. 2 option with Travis Etienne Jr. leading the way. The 23-year-old is set to back up Etienne once again in Sunday's matchup against the Indianapolis Colts. Most weeks, Tuten doesn't even see 30 percent of the offensive snaps. However, the forecast for Jacksonville calls for heavy rain, so Tuten could see more opportunities as the Jaguars might lean on the run more with inclement weather. Tuten hasn't been consistent enough to trust yet and is a low-end flex option in Week 14.

Jacksonville Jaguars rookie running back Bhayshul Tuten broke out in Week 11 against the Los Angeles Chargers, tallying a season-high 15 carries for 74 yards and a touchdown. The rookie fourth-rounder left the game early with an ankle injury, but Tuten was outcarrying Travis Etienne Jr. 15 to 12 before exiting. Tuten also played a season-high 42.9% of the snaps in the first three quarters. Fantasy managers hoped that this was the beginning of a second-half breakout for the dynamic running back, but Tuten hasn't seen the same usage in the past two weeks. His snap share has dipped back to 26.3%, just marginally above his season average of 22.7%. The 23-year-old also hasn't been as efficient in the past two games, totaling 36 yards on 16 touches, but he has still earned some goal-line usage and was able to punch in a touchdown last week against the Tennessee Titans. His role hasn't quite expanded yet, and he remains firmly behind Etienne. Tuten holds low-end flex value in Week 14 against the Indianapolis Colts.

Jacksonville Jaguars rookie running back Bhayshul Tuten recorded his fifth touchdown of the season in his team's Week 13 win over the Tennessee Titans, but he recorded just 19 scrimmage yards on nine touches. After his breakout 74-yard game in Week 11, Tuten has now been held under 20 scrimmage yards in back-to-back weeks. The 23-year-old has flashed upside throughout the year, but he remains firmly behind Travis Etienne Jr. in the Jaguars backfield pecking order. Still, Tuten has scored three touchdowns in his last five games and would immediately profile as a must-start fantasy running back if Etienne Jr. were to suffer an injury. Tuten's standalone value is as a low-end flex, at best. However, he's worth targeting on the waiver wire as a priority handcuff option heading into Jacksonville's Week 14 matchup against the Indianapolis Colts.

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Bhayshul Tuten has had mixed involvement in the Jaguars rushing attack, but this week against the 1-10 Titans seems like an ideal week to get him involved. In what should be a straight-forward win, the Jaguars have a chance to get their electric rookie more involved than usual. The game scrip should also favor the running game, and the Titans have a weak rushing defense. It is a risk to start Tuten considering he is coming off a rough seven carry for 17 yards performance against the Arizona Cardinals, but that involvement is still promising enough to have faith in a bounce-back week. Anyone looking for a high-risk high-reward flex in Week 13 should be intrigued by Tuten against the Titans.

Across 11 games this season, Jacksonville Jaguars rookie running back Bhayshul Tuten has recorded 316 scrimmage yards and four touchdowns on 75 total touches. The 23-year-old has spent the majority of the season playing the RB2 role in Jacksonville behind veteran back Travis Etienne Jr. Two weeks ago, Tuten recorded 15 carries for 74 yards and a touchdown against the Los Angeles Chargers, looking like a real threat to Etienne Jr. However, Tuten was forced to leave the game against the Chargers with an ankle injury. In Week 12, Etienne Jr. dominated the backfield workload and put up huge numbers against the Arizona Cardinals. Heading into the team's Week 13 matchup against the Tennessee Titans, there's little reason for fantasy managers to expect the Jaguars to go away from Etienne Jr. Tuten profiles as a low-end flex option at best in Week 13.

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Bhayshul Tuten was unable to find much success in the running game during Sunday's game against the Arizona Cardinals. Tuten rushed the ball seven times for 17 yards in the overtime victory. It's worth noting that Tuten did carry an ankle injury into this game, so possibly that impacted his performance on the field. In Week 11, Tuten rushed for 74 yards with a touchdown in the win over the Los Angeles Chargers. The rookie back remains the backup, but should continue seeing nearly double digit carries per week. His struggles this week could make fantasy managers hesitant, but he does head into a plus matchup against the Tennessee Titans in Week 13.
