NegativeRoleAug 25, 2026
The volume is the X-factor and unknown for Tuten; Tuten and Chris Rodriguez Jr. both have the same strengths as inside runners and were dominant at the goal line in 2025, but Tuten has a clear receiving advantage, although he was far behind Etienne in that department last season.PositiveValueAug 25, 2026
Tuten had the best offseason of any 2025 fourth-rounder; after the Jaguars replaced Travis Etienne Jr. with career backup Chris Rodriguez Jr. and passed on RB in the draft, Tuten can be the biggest fantasy value in the draft if Jacksonville uses him as a true 1A. Playcaller Liam Coen had the fifth-most RB fantasy points the last two seasons, and Tuten has a clear receiving advantage over Rodriguez.NegativeRoleAug 24, 2026
The source drafted Tuten as a bench player, indicating he's viewed as a depth option or potential waiver wire addition for the Jaguars.NegativeBustAug 20, 2026
Hayden Winks identifies Bhayshul Tuten as part of a risky RB tier alongside TreVeyon Henderson and Bucky Irving, preferring to lean on WRs, Jaylen Warren, and Lamar Jackson instead.NegativeRoleAug 19, 2026
Despite elite athleticism (9.24 RAS, 4.32 40-yard dash) and increased role with Travis Etienne now in New Orleans, Tuten faces significant headwinds: LeQuint Allen totaled 146 snaps on third downs last season and is still expected to serve in a similar role; Jaguars running backs ranked 22nd in combined targets (78) and 25th in routes run (365) last season; head coach Liam Coen brought in Chris Rodriguez as an early-down bruiser and goal-line back. Coen expects a committee approach this season, and Rodriguez could lead in goal-line touches. Without a significant pass-catching role or goal-line work, Tuten will need hyper-efficient play to justify his draft cost.PositiveRoleAug 18, 2026
Tuten has a real shot of being a 65%+ touch RB in a great Jaguars offense; he has the edge in the passing game over Chris Rodriguez Jr., who has never had a year with over five receptions. Tuten's ceiling is a high-end RB2 but with a floor of a normal flex play.PositiveValueAug 18, 2026
Tuten is the Jaguars' second-year running back with warts in his profile—he could lose third-down work to LeQuint Allen and some goal-line work to Chris Rodriguez, limiting his ceiling. However, the source believes that limitation is already fully baked into Tuten's Round 5 ADP and has him ranked ahead of consensus because he is clearly attached to the best offense among the young backs who go in the Round 4 to 6 range. If Rodriguez misses any time, Tuten would reach smash-level value.PositiveValueAug 14, 2026
Josh Norris suggests Bhayshul Tuten as a Round 5 speculative FLEX option if he pans out, positioning him as a high-upside late-round target in the RB-RB-WR-WR strategy.PositiveBreakoutAug 12, 2026
Kyle ranks Tuten RB20 as a breakout candidate with elite college production. Tuten logged Dominator Ratings of 79, 81, and 94 percent in college—higher than Jeremiah Love's 64 percent peak and Ashton Jeanty's 79 percent. As a rookie, the Jaguars soft-launched his role as a goal-line back with carries inside the five compared to nine for Travis Etienne when both were active; Tuten scored four times vs. Etienne's two. Tuten was also a capable pass-catcher in college, giving him multiple outs to high-value touches.PositiveBreakoutAug 12, 2026
Identified as a breakout RB2 candidate for the Jacksonville Jaguars in 2026, suggesting upside potential at the position.PositiveBreakoutAug 12, 2026
Positioned as a breakout RB2 in the Jaguars' backfield.NegativeRoleAug 11, 2026
Tuten is the explosive option in Jacksonville's three-back committee but lacked trustworthiness last season, which opens the door for Chris Rodriguez Jr. to secure high-value touches. If Tuten becomes more reliable, he would be the preferred roster option.PositiveBustAug 10, 2026
Tuten's ADP of 63.2 places him in the RB Dead Zone with significant red flags. He has zero NFL starts and his highest single-game target share last year was only 9.0%, mirroring the cautionary Kaleb Johnson example. Tuten shares a similar skill set with backfield mate Chris Rodriguez Jr., creating ambiguity about his role. The Jaguars' offensive uncertainty and potential split with Rodriguez Jr. suggest Tuten may be viewed as a Dead Zone RB by season's end despite potentially starting the year.NegativeValueAug 10, 2026
Tuten is listed with an ADP of 63.2 for 2026, falling in the Dead Zone range. The source identifies him as a potential Dead Zone candidate but provides no specific analysis of his role, situation, or upside in the excerpt provided.PositiveBreakoutAug 10, 2026
Fourth-round pick RB for Jacksonville has RB1 upside despite a pedestrian rookie season; Jacksonville's decision to let Travis Etienne Jr. (52+ targets in each of last three seasons) walk and replace him with non-receiving back Chris Rodriguez signals confidence in Tuten. His sixth-round average price tag may be slightly high, but he has significant upside in what should be a strong Jaguars offense.PositiveBreakoutAug 10, 2026
Tuten's opportunity expands significantly in Year 2 with the departure of Travis Etienne Jr., leaving his main competition as early-down grinder Chris Rodriguez Jr. (who hasn't topped 500 rushing yards in any of his three NFL seasons and profiles as a committee back) and pass-catching specialist LeQuint Allen Jr. (who has a very low ceiling as a part-time receiving weapon only). Tuten continues to earn praise from people around the Jaguars' organization, including head coach Liam Coen who noted his year-over-year improvement. As a rookie, Tuten flashed intriguing fantasy upside with his explosiveness and a nose for the end zone that led to seven touchdowns, posting three top-24 weekly finishes despite being the clear No. 1 back in Jacksonville. If Tuten carves out at least 50% of the backfield work, he has the type of big-play ability and pass-catching skills that could turn him into a fantasy star in one of the league's most dangerous offenses. The source ranks him RB23 (low-end fantasy RB2 with RB1 potential).PositiveProjectionAug 7, 2026
Tuten can absolutely be a lead back and live up to his ADP; Chris Rodriguez Jr. is a limited player offering almost nothing as a pass-catcher, so even if he takes some goal-line work, Tuten can still be a solid fantasy RB2 with upside. Last year Tuten scored seven TDs as the No. 2 RB in Jacksonville with almost 100 touches while Etienne still finished as RB10 in fppg; the Liam Coen offense will provide volume.NegativeRoleAug 7, 2026
Tuten was a backup runner last year and brings far more risk to the table in Tier 4. However, he plays on a top-eight scoring offense from 2025, which provides some upside potential despite his backup status.NegativeProjectionAug 5, 2026
Tuten is cited as the projected starter in the Broncos backfield with 190.6 projected PPR points. The source uses him as an example of a situation where the Zero RB strategy could fail if the backup doesn't close the gap, illustrating the risk of betting on backfield changes.NegativeProjectionAug 4, 2026
RB25 at ADP 64.1 in sixth round on Yahoo, but going nearly a round later on ESPN and nearly a round earlier in FFPC leagues. Significant uncertainty surrounds former fourth-round pick: will he be Jacksonville RB1, how much work will Chris Rodriguez Jr. command near goal line, will Jaguars offense remain productive, and is Tuten even good. Training camp and preseason pecking order could drastically sway his value heading into September.PositiveBreakoutAug 3, 2026
The source includes Bhayshul Tuten among 13 names they are drafting with confidence with the hopes of winning the league, targeting players with championship-level upside rather than floor plays.NegativeDepth ChartNo date
Matt Harmon and Zain Dhanani examine the depth chart battle between Bhayshul Tuten and Chris Rodriguez Jr. as a storyline heading into training camp, with the position battle outcome affecting backfield usage and fantasy value.NegativeProjectionNo date
