News: 1 day agoBigsby (shoulder) returned to Sunday's loss against Cleveland but didn't play any offensive snaps.

Spin: Bigsby suffered a shoulder injury during the second quarter on a kickoff return, and he was able to return to the contest during the second half. The 2023 third-round pick didn't play any offensive snaps in the game, as D'Ernest Johnson carried five times for 26 yards behind starting running back Travis Etienne. Bigsby had a promising season opener with 12 carries for 73 yards, but his involvement Week 2 left a lot to be desired. Even though he returned to the field, the shoulder injury may have affected Bigsby's role versus the Browns, so he still should be considered Jacksonville's No. 2 running back for now.

ESPN Fantasy Projection: A third-round selection in the spring of 2023, Bigsby's first run in the league didn't include much, well, running. Bigsby toted the ball just 50 times, finishing with the fewest yards per touch of all backs with as many attempts. Given the team's draft investment, Bigsby -- a former five-star recruit -- still has a chance to surface as a contributor to the Jaguars' offense in 2024, albeit with tempered expectations given his perch behind a proven three-down option in Travis Etienne Jr. Given Bigsby's blend of collegiate production and NFL draft stock, he should be considered as a worthy late-round insurance option in most formats.
