Jacksonville Jaguars running back Travis Etienne Jr. is questionable to return to action in Week 12 after heading to the locker room with a foot injury.

Etienne had a three-yard rush on the Jaguars’ opening possession against the Baltimore Ravens and was stuffed for no gain on the first play of the team’s second possession. Shortly after the Jaguars punted a couple plays later, Etienne was spotted heading to the locker room with trainers.

The second-year running back missed his entire rookie season due to a Lisfranc injury, but has been an emerging star for the team in 2022. After starting the season as one half of a two-back tandem with James Robinson, Etienne took over as the workhorse following a trade that sent Robinson to the New York Jets.

Etienne, 23, had a streak of five straight games with at least 100 yards from scrimmage and four touchdowns over a three-game stretch in Weeks 7 through 9.

Earlier in the week, the Jaguars claimed former Los Angeles Rams starting running back Darrell Henderson, but he was listed as inactive Sunday after only having a few days to learn the playbook. If Etienne is unable to return to action, backup running back JaMycal Hasty will presumably see the majority of the touches in the backfield.
