Tank Bigsby Continues To Receive Praise
1 year agoJacksonville Jaguars rookie running back Tank Bigsby has done nothing but impress the coaching staff in training camp this summer. "Outside of the size, speed, athleticism, and all that this kid is a sponge. He's really a smart, young running back. He understands defense," head coach Doug Pederson said. Travis Etienne Jr. rushed for over 1,000 yards in 2022, but Bigsby brings power that the team lacked on the ground in 2022. The rookie has done enough in camp to warrant touches behind Etienne in some capacity, but it's hard to determine at this time how big of a role he'll have. The 21-year-old third-rounder is quickly rising up draft boards and is a worthwhile investment as Etienne's handcuff, at the very least.
