Who Should I Start? Zack Moss or Bhayshul Tuten

Tuesday, July 22, 5:48 PM

The Cincinnati Bengals announced on Tuesday that they placed running back Zack Moss (neck) on the Active/Non-Football Injury list. Moss was only able to play in eight games (six starts) last year in his first season with the Bengals due to a season-ending neck injury. The 27-year-old did take part in OTAs in the spring, though, which means he should be activated from the NFI list sooner than later at camp. Chase Brown is the clear lead back for the Bengals after a big 2024 season, although Moss will be involved as a change-of-pace option if he's healthy. Moss saw only 74 rushing attempts last year and ran for 242 yards (career-low 3.3 yards per carry) and two touchdowns. When Moss is able to get back onto the field, he'll primarily be competing with veteran Samaje Perine for the No. 2 duties behind Brown this year.

Jacksonville Jaguars rookie running back Bhayshul Tuten was one of the fastest players in the 2025 NFL draft and ran a 4.32-second 40-yard dash at the scouting combine, which was the fastest among RBs. Tuten has often been compared to Miami's De'Von Achane for his home run ability. However, he's on the small side at 5-foot-9 and 209 pounds, and head coach Liam Coen said that Tuten needs to improve in pass protection as he heads into his first year in the NFL. Barring a significant change in training camp and the preseason, Travis Etienne Jr. is expected to remain the team's starting back. The 23-year-old had 1,159 yards and 15 touchdowns in 183 rushing yards last year at Virginia Tech. He's raw and needs to improve his ball security and pass protection, but his elite speed could get him on the field sooner than later in Jacksonville.
