Travis Etienne Jr. Week 3 Outlook - Texans at Jaguars

By Derek Brown (FantasyPros), Thu, Sep 21st 2023, 8:57am EDT

Etienne is Jacksonville's workhorse back. He's averaged 76% of snaps played with 18.5 touches and 73 total yards as the RB19 in fantasy. Houston is an exploitable run defense. They have the tenth-lowest stuff rate while giving up the 11th-most missed tackles per attempt and sitting at 16th in yards after contact per attempt allowed. Etienne's had half of his carries come on zone runs where he has been more effective (4.87 ypc vs. 2.93 ypc with gap). Houston is 16th in yards per carry allowed on zone runs. Week 3 Positional Value: RB1
