Tank Bigsby

Cartavious "Tank" Bigsby has been a force for the Auburn Tigers since he first stepped on the school campus. He took over as the team's starting running back as a freshman in 2020, earning a 20% dominator rating. Bigsby would build off his hot start as a sophomore with a 25% dominator rating followed by a career-high 27% dominator rating his junior year. The 6-foot, 210-pound back finished 6th in yards after contact per attempt (4.16), 11th in forced missed tackles, 11th in PFF rushing grade and 7th in breakaway run rate among his 2023 draft-eligible RB peers.

However, Bigsby would often get into trouble trying to rip off a massive run, suffering from the worst bust run rate (10%) in the 2023 draft class per Sports Info Solutions.

Although Bigsby is not overly athletic, based on his "meh" testing at the combine. 26th percentile vertical jump, 54th percentile broad jump and a 4.56 40-yard dash (47th percentile). Bigsby did improve on his 40-time at Auburn's pro day, running a 4.45.

Tank Bigsby rushed for 21 yards on nine carries in Sunday's 34-14 win over the Titans.

Fantasy Impact

Bigsby got a new season high in carries Sunday, but all of them came with the Jaguars up big in the fourth quarter. The rookie running back seems to have officially been replaced by D'Ernest Johnson as the top backup to starter Travis Etienne. Bigsby is off the redraft radar right now.
