  • D'Ernest Johnson Appears To Have Taken Over No. 2 Role

    Headshot for D'Ernest Johnson

    After seeing a season-high eight touches in last week's win over the Tennessee Titans, Jacksonville Jaguars running back D'Ernest Johnson saw another eight touches in Week 12's 24-21 win over the Houston Texans on Sunday. Johnson carried seven times for 19 yards and caught one of his two targets for a 42-yard pickup. He played a season-high 39 percent of the offensive snaps compared to just three percent for rookie Tank Bigsby. Johnson has now played at least 21 percent of the snaps in each of the last three games and appears to have taken over the No. 2 role behind starter Travis Etienne Jr. The 27-year-old is by no means worth a starting lineup spot on his own, but he could be in line for lead-back duties in Jacksonville if Etienne were to go down with an injury.

  • Tank Bigsby Gets 0 Touches In Week 2

    Headshot for Tank Bigsby

    Jacksonville Jaguars running back Tank Bigsby did not receive any opportunities in Week 2, recording 0 total yards in the loss vs. Kansas City. It was odd usage for the rookie running back who saw 21% of snaps in Week 1 and was given seven carries, one of which he turned into a touchdown. The game was a competitive grind fest throughout, so game script could be the culprit here with the Jags opting to leave their more trusted back Etienne in the game for longer stretches. It's worth noting that third-string running back D'Ernest Johnson only logged one rush, so Bigsby presumably still has the RB2 position locked up, but it's definitely a situation worth monitoring. He'll look to bounce back next week against the Texans and their weak run defense.
