The Jacksonville Jaguars will visit the Tennessee Titans in Week 13. Here’s the latest fantasy football news and advice to help you with your lineups this week and moving forward, specifically regarding RB Travis Etienne Jr.
Is Travis Etienne Jr. Playing in Week 13?
Etienne is not on the injury report, and barring a surprise, he is expected to play.
We’ll continue to monitor the Jaguars’ injury report leading up to kickoff for any changes. You can also visit and bookmark our Fantasy News Tracker for the latest updates.
Should You Start or Sit Etienne in Week 13?
A 15-yard touchdown reception by Travis Etienne in the first quarter last week helped quiet the whispers about a split backfield and he finished the week with 116 all purpose yards in one of his better performances of the season.
The Jags are in the thick of the playoff race and with the game scripted expected to tilt in their favor this week, we should feel good about banking on another 16-18 carries and 2-4 targets from their RB1.
Etienne has eight top-20 finishes at the position this season, a status that he has held for each of the past four weeks. Draft picks like Jahmy Gibbs and Jaxon Smith-Njigba get highlighted because of the cartoonish numbers they put up, but hitting on a mid-round selection at the level that you have with Etienne is also a critical component to winning your league.
Hat tip to you for the selection: you should be sitting pretty over the next few weeks (before Jacksonville has to travel to Denver in Week 16).
