Who Should I Start? Travis Etienne Jr. or Elic Ayomanor

Sunday, December 7, 9:27 PM

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Travis Etienne Jr. had a big day in his team's Week 14 win over the Indianapolis Colts, recording 74 rushing yards and two touchdowns on 20 carries. The 26-year-old also hauled in his lone target for an eight-yard reception. Etienne Jr. has now recorded at least 18 touches in six out of his last seven games played. Across 13 contests in 2025, he's logged 1,098 scrimmage yards and nine touchdowns on 227 touches. While the Jaguars have split work between Etienne Jr. and rookie running back Bhayshul Tuten at times this season, Etienne Jr. out-touched Tuten 20 to two in a crucial division matchup against Indianapolis. Etienne Jr. has established himself as a must-start fantasy running back heading into his Week 15 matchup against the New York Jets.

Tennessee Titans rookie wide receiver Elic Ayomanor caught his first touchdown since Week 3 during Sunday's win over the Cleveland Browns. Ayomanor finished with just the one catch for 14 yards on three targets, but it was good to see him find the end zone again after an eight-game drought. The rookie fourth-rounder has held down a full-time role for the Titans this season, playing 81.5% of the snaps in 11 games. He's had a decent season, considering how poor the Titans' offense has been, totaling 30 receptions for 353 yards and three touchdowns on 67 targets. He missed the Week 12 game due to a hamstring injury and has faded in Tennessee's passing attack since the Week 10 bye, recording four receptions for 30 yards and a touchdown on 12 targets. While his target share gives him a decent floor, Ayomanor still profiles as a flex option in deep leagues in Week 15 against the San Francisco 49ers.
