Former All-Pro Maurice Jones-Drew is a Jacksonville Jaguars legend. In a list of the league's top running backs, he rated Travis Etienne.
Maurice Jones-Drew was one of the best running backs and players to play for the Jacksonville Jaguars. Perhaps only Fred Taylor is more revered at the position. Jones-Drew, a three-time Pro Bowler and as well as a first-team All-Pro selection in 2011, carried the torch for Jaguars running backs.
Now, Travis Etienne looks to be the next great Jaguars running back. The former 2021 first-round draft choice surpassed 1,000 yards in each of his first two seasons in the NFL. Last season, Etienne scored 11 touchdowns and received a vote for the AP Offensive Player of the Year award. "Etienne is coming off a solid 2023 campaign and remains a major key to the Jaguars’ success," Jones-Drew. "His ability to run through defenders and development as a pass catcher should keep him in line for another productive season alongside Trevor Lawrence and Doug Pederson."
