Bigsby (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game at Detroit. Bigsby injured his ankle during this past Sunday's loss to the Vikings. After Bigsby sat out practice Wednesday and Thursday, coach Doug Pederson told Demetrius Harvey of The Florida Times-Union that the running back was slated to get back on the field Friday, but that didn't come to pass. As a result, Bigsby won't be available Week 11, leaving the Jaguars backfield to Travis Etienne and D'Ernest Johnson (hamstring).

Bigsby (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game at Detroit. Bigsby injured his ankle during this past Sunday's loss to the Vikings. After Bigsby sat out practice Wednesday and Thursday, coach Doug Pederson told Demetrius Harvey of The Florida Times-Union that the running back was slated to get back on the field Friday, but that didn't come to pass. As a result, Bigsby won't be available Week 11, leaving the Jaguars backfield to Travis Etienne and D'Ernest Johnson (hamstring).
Coach Doug Pederson said Bigsby (ankle) will practice Friday, and he's optimistic the running back will play Sunday against the Lions, Demetrius Harvey of The Florida Times-Union reports. "Optimistic," Pederson said Friday morning. "But today will be a big day for him." After missing practice Wednesday and Thursday, a Friday return gives Bigsby a chance to play Sunday in Detroit. If he's cleared to play, the Jaguars likely will continue to use a three-man backfield, consisting of Bigsby, Travis Etienne and D'Ernest Johnson, leaving none as upside fantasy plays against a tough Lions run defense.
Bigsby (ankle) didn't practice Thursday. After having missed consecutive practices to begin Week 11 prep, Bigsby's status for Sunday's game against the Lions is cloudy. His outlook could change if he's able to practice in any capacity Friday, but if Bigsby is held out this weekend with an eye toward giving him added healing time during the Jaguars' upcoming Week 12 bye, Travis Etienne would be in line to see added backfield snaps and touches versus Detroit.
Bigsby (ankle) didn't practice Wednesday. Listed with an ankle injury for much of the season, Bigsby limped off the field during the first quarter of Sunday's 12-7 loss to the Vikings. He re-entered the contest but then played just two snaps in the second half, leaving Travis Etienne as the clear leader of Jacksonville's backfield. Etienne and D'Ernest Johnson will handle things Week 11 if Bigsby isn't ready for the matchup with the Detroit on Sunday.
Bigsby exited Sunday's game against the Vikings due to an ankle injury, John Oehser of the Jaguars' official site reports. Bigsby was shaken up after a three-yard run midway through the first quarter, requiring assistance from trainers to get to the sideline and into the medical tent. If he's unable to return, he'll be contained to a single touch in Week 10. Travis Etienne should lead the Jaguars backfield in the meantime, with D'Ernest Johnson also on hand for RB reps.
Bigsby (ankle) doesn't have a designation for Sunday's contest against the Vikings. Both Bigsby and Travis Etienne (hamstring) were limited in practice all week, but both running backs will be available to the Jaguars offense this weekend. During this past Sunday's defeat at Philadelphia, Bigsby earned 52 percent of the snaps en route to eight carries for 22 yards, while Etienne handled a 31 percent snap share and turned five touches into 30 yards from scrimmage. The breakdown between the pair should be somewhat similar Week 10.
Bigsby (ankle) remained limited in practice Thursday. The same goes for Travis Etienne (hamstring), with D'Ernest Johnson now on the Jaguars' Week 10 injury report after logging a limited practice Thursday. Friday's final report will reveal the game status' of the three running backs ahead of Sunday's game against the Vikings, but we'd be surprised if either Bigsby or Etienne were sidelined after playing through their respective injury issues last weekend.
Bigsby (ankle) was a limited practice participant Wednesday. Bigsby played through the ankle injury in Sunday's 28-23 loss to Philadelphia, taking a team-high eight carries for 22 yards while playing 55 percent of snaps on offense. Travis Etienne (hamstring) took 72 percent of snaps in the first half but then just nine percent in the second half, barely playing after a dropped pass late in the second quarter resulted in an interception. Bigsby then got most of the snaps after halftime, but with D'Ernest Johnson getting work in clear passing situations, including the final drive. It's a messy backfield, with a tough matchup upcoming against the Vikings on Sunday.
Bigsby (ankle) rushed eight times for 22 yards and was not targeted as a receiver in Sunday's 28-23 loss to the Eagles. Bigsby suffered from the return of Travis Etienne (hamstring) on Sunday, as neither back provided fantasy value in a tandem role. The 23-year-old Bigsby was a huge fantasy play in recent weeks with 196 rushing yards and two trips to the end zone in his previous two contests, but he struggled mightily in a split role against Philadelphia. Consider both Jaguars running backs flex plays at best heading into Week 10, with Bigsby being the better bet for a touchdown against the Vikings next Sunday.
