Bhayshul Tuten will compete with Chris Rodriguez to be the lead back for the Jaguars in 2026. I want to bet on Tuten this year and his talent. Last year, Tuten was unfortunately robbed of the stretch run of his rookie season as he was sidelined by a finger injury. Before the injury, he was starting to make some noise. This could be the big breakout season for Tuten, who, on a per-touch basis, flashed the immense talent that I really liked when he was in college. Last season, among 55 qualifying backs, he ranked fifth in rushing success rate, 11th in missed tackle rate, and 17th in yards after contact per attempt. Rodriguez will remain a worry for Tuten at the goal line and for his overall touch count until we see his role fleshed out this season. That uncertainty makes it tough to count on Tuten as an RB2 in Week 1. He could ultimately produce like one this week, but it's tough to project that at the moment. The Browns should field a solid run defense again this season. Last year, in Weeks 12-18, Cleveland allowed the 11th-lowest explosive run rate, the 12th-lowest rushing success rate, and the 11th-lowest missed tackle rate.

Bhayshul Tuten expected to ‘have a big year’ per HC Coen

Bhayshul Tuten is expected to “have a big year” according to HC Liam Coen. Coen praised the second year back in an interview, noting his explosive ability and the growth in his game.

Fantasy Impact

Tuten is the favorite for RB1 duties in Jacksonville with his do-it-all skillset, while Chris Rodriguez dealing with an injury this offseason and LeQuint Allen is primarily a pass blocking and catching specialist. He’s still a bit of an unknown since Travis Etienne handled the majority of backfield work in 2025, but his upside should things work out is tantalizing.
