Jaguars | Travis Etienne taking WR reps

Jacksonville Jaguars RB Travis Etienne will take all of his rookie minicamp repetitions at wide receiver, Jaguars head coach Urban Meyer said Saturday, May 15. ‘Worst-case scenario you have a running back that’s elite with receiver skills,’ Meyer said.

Footballguys View: Etienne had 588 receiving yards in 2020, the most of any running back in the FBS. He’s a dynamic runner who can make defenders miss with speed and balance. Etienne has big-play ability and can pick up chunk yards in a hurry. The Jaguars have James Robinson as a lead back, but Etienne will work his way into the mix – either as a running back or receiver.
