Patriots RB Stevenson active but Jags RB Etienne out for Wembley game

New England Patriots leading rusher Rhamondre Stevenson was listed as active against the Jacksonville Jaguars at Wembley Stadium after missing one game with a foot injury
OCTOBER 20, 2024 • Associated Press
Travis Etienne Jr. - Inactive for Week 7 Etienne (hamstring) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Patriots in London.
Impact Approximately an hour before Jacksonville revealed its inactive list, head coach Doug Pederson told Steve Wyche of NFL Network that Etienne had a good week of practice before being listed as questionable heading into Sunday, but the Jaguars are deciding to err on the side of caution by keeping the running back out for at least one game. In Etienne's absence, Pederson suggested that the Jaguars would lean primarily on Tank Bigsby and D'Ernest Johnson to fill snaps out of the backfield, with practice squad call-up Jake Funk serving as a third option. If Etienne can increase his practice activity next week without experiencing any setbacks with his hamstring, he should have a good chance of returning to action next Sunday versus the Packers in Jacksonville.

D'Ernest Johnson - Role could expand sans Etienne Jaguars head coach Doug Pederson suggested that Johnson is in line to take on a greater role out of the backfield for Sunday's game against the Patriots in London Travis Etienne (h...
Impact With Etienne set to miss his first game of the season, the Jaguars will keep Johnson, Bigsby and practice-squad call-up Jake Funk active as their three running backs for Week 7. After Etienne exited the Jaguars' Week 6 loss to the Bears after playing just 11 snaps, Johnson (34 snaps) finished with far more playing time than Bigsby (16 snaps), but a negative game script and Johnson's standing as Jacksonville's preferred option on passing downs was likely a significant factor. Though Johnson should still rank as the clear choice ahead of Bigsby on third downs and obvious passing situations, expect Bigsby to serve as the Jaguars' lead runner in Etienne's absence this week. Bigsby is averaging an impressive 7.2 yards per carry on 41 totes this season, though Johnson has been competent in his opportunities on the ground as well (16 carries for 67 yards). Johnson's fantasy utility for Week 7 will likely be mostly limited to deeper PPR leagues.

Impact Though Pederson noted that Etienne had a good week of practice before being listed as questionable heading into Sunday, the 2021 first-round draft pick ultimately couldn't shake off the hamstring injury he sustained in the Jaguars' Week 6 loss to the Bears. While Pederson is seemingly leaving the door open for Etienne to return to the lineup Week 8 versus the Packers, his absence Sunday likely leaves the door open for Bigsby to serve as the Jaguars' top option on the ground. D'Ernest Johnson is expected to have a sizable role of his own -- likely as Jacksonville's top passing-down back -- but in non-PPR formats especially, Bigsby still profiles as a strong lineup option for Week 7. Even while working behind Etienne this season, Bigsby has flashed over his 80 snaps through six games, carrying 41 times for 297 yards (7.2 average) and two touchdowns. A workload of 10-to-15 carries could be enough for Bigsby to produce a useful line for fantasy managers.

Impact Expect the Jaguars to include Etienne on their inactive list, which will be released 90 minutes prior to the 9:30 a.m. ET kickoff in London. With Etienne set to miss his first game of the season, Tank Bigsby and D'Ernest Johnson will see expanded profiles out of the backfield. Look for Bigsby to serve as the Jaguars' top option on the ground, while Johnson operates as Jacksonville's passing-down back.

Jaguars activate cornerback Tyson Campbell for London game against Patriots

Jacksonville Jaguars cornerback Tyson Campbell has been activated from injured reserve ahead of Sunday’s game against the New England Patriots at London's Wembley Stadium
OCTOBER 19, 2024 • Associated Press
Tyson Campbell - Officially activated off IR The Jaguars activated Campbell (hamstring) from injured reserve Saturday.
Impact Campbell was placed on injured reserve after he injured his hamstring in Week 1 against the Dolphins. His 21-day practice window opened Oct. 9, and unless he suffers a setback during warmups, he should make his return Sunday against the Patriots. Campbell will reclaim his starting role at corner opposite Ronald Darby while Montaric Brown returns to a rotational role.
OCTOBER 19, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Jake Funk - Elevated ahead of Week 7 The Jaguars elevated Funk from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday.
Impact Funk was unable to make the Lions' 53-man roster at the end of training camp, but he managed to catch on with the Jaguars' practice squad Oct. 1. His elevation to the active roster gives the Jags some insurance in the backfield in case Travis Etienne (hamstring) cannot play Sunday against the Patriots. If Etienne is inactive, Funk would serve as Jacksonville's No. 3 running back behind Tank Bigsby and D'Ernest Johnson.

Travis Etienne Jr. - Questionable for Week 7 Etienne (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Sunday's contest versus the Patriots in London.
Impact Prior to leaving this past Sunday's loss to the Bears in London due to a hamstring injury, Etienne had experienced a downturn in his workload, combining for 15 touches between Weeks 5 and 6 after averaging 14.3 per game during the first four games of the campaign. On Monday, coach Doug Pederson termed Etienne week-to-week as a result of the health concern, according to Michael DiRocco of ESPN.com, and the running back proceeded to be listed as limited on all three Week 7 practice reports. Pederson touched on Etienne again Friday, telling Demetrius Harvey of The Florida Times-Union, "I think Etienne is progressing. We still haven't made a decision yet. We're still going to get through tomorrow, could be game time." As a result, Etienne's status for Sunday won't be confirmed until about 90 minutes before a 9:30 a.m. ET kickoff. Even if Etienne is able to suit up, he may cede most of the Jaguars' backfield reps to some combination of Tank Bigsby and D'Ernest Johnson.
OCTOBER 18, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Gabe Davis - Available for Week 7 Davis (knee) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Patriots, Demetrius Harvey of the Florida Times-Union reports.
Impact Davis practiced without limitations Friday after being limited Wednesday and Thursday. His tenure in Jacksonville got off to a slow start, but Davis scored his first two touchdowns as a Jaguar in the team's Week 6 loss to the Bears, giving him some momentum heading into Sunday's game against the Patriots at Wembley Stadium.
OCTOBER 18, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Evan Engram - Cleared to play Week 7 Engram (hamstring) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Patriots, Demetrius Harvey of the Florida Times-Union reports.
Impact Engram had a productive return from a four-week absence due to a hamstring injury in Jacksonville's 35-16 loss to the Bears this past Sunday, logging 10 catches for 102 yards. He was limited in practice Wednesday and Thursday by the same injury but has been cleared for action Sunday after a full practice Friday, sparing Engram's fantasy managers the headache of getting up early to check on his status before Sunday's 9:30 a.m. ET kickoff at Wembley Stadium in England.

Tyson Campbell - On track to play Sunday Jaguars head coach Doug Pederson said Friday that Campbell (hamstring) is expected to come off IR and play Sunday versus the Patriots in London "barring any setbacks," Demetrius Ha...
Impact Pederson said Campbell has "had a good week of preparation." The 2021 second-round pick is coming off back-to-back limited practices, and he's now had roughly two weeks of practice to ramp up his activity level. Once fully recovered from the hamstring injury he sustained Week 1, Campbell will resume working as Jacksonville's top cornerback.
OCTOBER 18, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Travis Etienne Jr. - Deemed game-time decision Jaguars head coach Doug Pederson said Friday that Etienne (hamstring) will be a game-time decision for Sunday's matchup against the Patriots, Michael DiRocco of ESPN.com reports.
Impact Etienne was deemed week-to-week Monday morning and has since turned in back-to-back limited practices. It wouldn't be surprising if Etienne is officially listed as limited again Friday and ultimately carries a 'questionable' designation into the weekend, as official confirmation on his status may not arrive until roughly 90 minutes prior to Sunday's 9:30 a.m ET kickoff. Tank Bigsby will be the favorite to start versus New England if Etienne is unable to go, while D'Ernest Johnson will figure to handle the majority of pass-catching work.

Evan Engram - Still limited in practice Engram (hamstring) remained limited at practice Thursday.
Impact Engram still hasn't been a full practice participant since injuring his hamstring in pregame warmups Week 2, but he finally returned to action this past Sunday and caught each of his 10 targets for 102 yards in a 35-16 loss to the Bears. He handled 62 percent snap share and 75 percent route share, playing deep into the fourth quarter without any hint of an injury aggravation/setback. Engram seems on track to play again this Sunday against the Patriots, but an injury designation remains possible given his continued limitations in practice.
OCTOBER 17, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Travis Etienne Jr. - Limited in practice Etienne (hamstring) remained limited in practice Thursday.
Impact He's logged consecutive limited practices since coach Doug Pederson deemed the RB week-to-week Monday morning. It's hard to tell exactly where he's at in terms of the probability of playing against New England this Sunday, and there will be major workload concerns if Etienne is active -- not only because of his hamstring but also because Tank Bigsby and D'Ernest Johnson got more involved in the offense the past few weeks. In the event of an Etienne absence, Bigsby would be the favorite to start and take most of the carries, with Johnson handling the obvious passing situations. Johnson took 77 percent of the snaps after Etienne's third-quarter exit in an eventual 35-16 loss to the Bears this past Sunday, but Bigsby presumably would've gotten more playing time if the Jags hadn't been trailing by multiple scores.
