Travis EtienneRBNO
Etienne departed Jacksonville for New Orleans in the offseason, vacating the lead-back role that Tuten now inherits. In 2025, Etienne finished as RB13 with 13 total touchdowns, benefiting from Jacksonville's breakout fantasy offense under Liam Coen. Etienne caught 36 passes with 49 of 52 targets on early downs (94%), demonstrating the high-percentage, schemed-up nature of Coen's passing game for running backs. He trailed only Christian McCaffrey in screen routes (19) and targets (14) among RBs in Coen's system. His departure directly opens the door for Tuten's expanded role.
