Travis Etienne waited a long time for his home debut with the Jacksonville Jaguars after missing his entire rookie season due to a Lisfranc injury.
When he arrived Sunday for his long-awaited first regular season game at TIAA Bank Field, Etienne showed up in style with a throwback Fred Taylor jersey.

Taylor is the Jaguars all-time rushing leader after racking up 11,271 yards over an 11-season tenure with the franchise. He finished his career with two seasons as a member of the New England Patriots and is currently 17th all-time in rushing yards.
Etienne’s tribute to Taylor didn’t go unnoticed by the Jaguars legend.
