The LeQuint Allen soft tissue injury will keep him out for the rest of training camp, putting his Week 1 status in question. Allen was trending toward the Jaguars’ primary receiving back role, backed by a 96th percentile College Target Share on PlayerProfiler.
If Allen misses regular-season time, Bhayshul Tuten will command a greater target share, raising his already sky-high ceiling after posting a 100th-percentile Speed Score and 97th-percentile Burst Score during pre-draft testing in 2025. Chris Rodriguez could also see more work, but his 5.5% College Target Share makes him a less natural replacement for Allen. Tuten’s ADP is about to break into the Top-50 in fantasy football best ball and redraft formats.

Liam Coen has finally said the quiet part out loud. Jacksonville does not have a true RB1 on the roster. Bhayshul Tuten brings legitimate ceiling with elite speed and a 98th-percentile Speed Score. Meanwhile, Chris Rodriguez Jr. threatens base Opportunity Share on early downs, and LeQuint Allen Jr. profile projects a sneaky pass-down target.
Rodriguez projects to siphon away Tuten’s high-value touches, while Allen caps his passing snaps. Tuten’s standalone upside now requires injuries to be fully realized — he is PlayerProfiler’s RB26 for seasonal/redraft fantasy football formats.
Let the cope commence. Despite camp buzz surrounding Bhayshul Tuten and a foot injury holding back Chris Rodriguez, Jacksonville maintains a divided backfield rotation. LeQuint Allen threatens third-down volume after logging a 23.0% Route Rate last season, capping Tuten despite his 25.8% Juke Rate.
With starters sitting through the preseason, expect a messy committee that limits Opportunity Share for everyone involved. Rodriguez is the clear fantasy value now with a double-digit ADP and a nominal starting role on an ascending offense.
Despite boasting a 4.32 40-yard dash speed, Bhayshul Tuten‘s fantasy ceiling is at-risk as Liam Coen rotates his Jacksonville backfield. LeQuint Allen projects as the preferred third-down passing specialist, while Chris Rodriguez cannibalizes high-leverage goal-line carries inside the 10-yard line.
With this news, Allen’s stock is rising fastest in fantasy football dynasty leagues. Shipley also reported that Rodriguez “got most, if not all, of the goal-line type reps.” Tuten seems set to absorb the team’s lowest fantasy point scoring touches, but early camp rotation snapshots often lie, so monitor actual preseason snap counts before adjusting ranking tiers.
While beat reporters monitor practice reps, Bhayshul Tuten continues to gain backfield momentum backed by a high-end 25.8% Juke Rate and 3.14 Yards Created Per Touch. Meanwhile, Chris Rodriguez remains limited to individual drills with a foot injury, jeopardizing his bid for early-down volume after recording a 36.7% Opportunity Share.
Draft strategists know targeting ambiguous backfields yields structural advantages, making Tuten’s Round 5-6 best ball ADP a buying opportunity as Jacksonville’s rotation takes shape. Target share will be a key for Tuten, and satellite back Lequint Allen has also been receiving praise, as he had another explosive run on Thursday while stiff-arming a defender, according to Jaguars beat writer Travis Holmes.
Tuten is a fantastic upside FLEX play, but fantasy football drafters should lock in a proven producer at the RB1 spot before considering Tuten in all formats from best ball to dynasty.
Chris Rodriguez, who logged a 24.3-percent Juke Rate and 2.86 Yards Created Per Touch last season, cleared medical protocol to participate in individual drills. The step forward ensures Rodriguez can earn early-down work in a split backfield.
Bhayshul Tuten remains the main story. He will be the 1A back in Jacksonville, which has already been reinforced early in training camp. “Tuten was frankly the most impressive offensive player of the entire day,” according to SI’s John Shipley. Tuten’s youth and explosiveness positions him as the upside RB to target in all fantasy football formats, particularly dynasty leagues.
