Travis Etienne has been a key part of the offense for the Jacksonville Jaguars.
The statistics tell us that the back out of Clemson has rushed for 728 yards in the 11 games he has played for the Jaguars this season.
He has also scored four touchdowns and has helped many fantasy owners win their matches, as well as being involved with three of the four games that the Jaguars have won this season.
As well as being a rushing weapon, Etienne can also be used as a receiver, recording 202 receiving yards on the season so far.
Last week, during the Jaguars’ shock comeback win over the Baltimore Ravens, Etienne left the game in the first quarter with a foot injury.
Many people feared that this injury would keep him out of the Jaguars’ next game against the Detroit Lions.
For those who are worried, NFL writer Dov Kleiman has some good news for Jags fans.
#Jaguars RB Travis Etienne, who's been dealing with a foot injury, is good to go and will play the #Lions on Week 13.

Etienne’s Impact
With Etienne good to play on Sunday, the Jaguars can focus on their match against the high-scoring Lions.
Etienne’s return will be welcomed by the Jaguars’ offense, as they look to build on the momentum caused by their offensive successes against the Ravens last week.
While the Lions are a high-scoring team, they have also conceded a lot of points this season.
The addition of someone like Etienne could be the difference between a Jaguars win or a loss, as he can exploit the holes in the Lions defense, helping Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence and the rest of his offense to move down the field and closer to the end zone.
