Bhayshul Tuten
Bhayshul Tuten is officially questionable for tonight’s contest against the Baltimore Ravens, but his practice status does not bode well for his availability. Selected in the fourth round of the 2025 NFL Draft, the Virginia Tech product had a quiet rookie season but showed a few signs of life. Serving as the team’s RB2 behind Travis Etienne, the rookie finished his inaugural campaign with 307 rushing yards and five touchdowns on 83 attempts while adding 10 receptions for 79 yards and a touchdown through the air.
Etienne joined New Orleans as a free agent in the 2026 offseason, leaving Bhayshul Tuten alone atop the depth chart. The running back made the most of this opportunity, as he’s recorded 492 yards and three touchdowns on 110 attempts while adding another 15 receptions for 181 yards and three touchdowns through the air. However, he may not get a chance to add to those numbers on Thursday Night Football. While he’s officially questionable, the team’s injury report notes that he hasn’t practiced once this week, which does not bode well for his availability.

Bhayshul Tuten Questionable, But Hasn’t Practiced This Week
If Bhayshul Tuten cannot play, veteran Chris Rodriguez will likely lead the team’s rushing attack. After spending the first three years of his career with the Washington Commanders, the veteran has fit in well with the Jacksonville Jaguars. Filling in as the backup, Rodriguez has recorded 209 yards and three touchdowns on 45 attempts and helped Jacksonville during their successful start to the season.
This could be a big week for Bhayshul Tuten or Chris Rodriguez, as the game script will likely favor the Jaguars. Jacksonville is one of the best teams in the league, and the current version of the Baltimore Ravens are…not. Lamar Jackson and Tyler Huntley are both sidelined for the forseeable future, so the Ravens will have to place their faith in undrafted free agent Joe Fagnano. Fagnano did not play well in relief of Jackson and Huntley last week, and now he’ll go up against one of the league’s top defenses.
