The Jacksonville Jaguars enter the 2025 season with a new head coach and a murky backfield, leaving fantasy managers with a crucial question: What is the hierarchy in the Jaguars' running back room?Last year's production was lackluster, with starter Travis Etienne Jr. seeing a significant drop in production, while his counterpart, Tank Bigsby, flashed moments of high-end potential.
