Tank Bigsby

As we approach the 2025 fantasy football season, Tank Bigsby is a name that should be on every fantasy owner's radar. Despite a quiet start to his rookie year in 2024, Bigsby flashed significant potential, particularly in the second half of the season. He demonstrated big-play ability, vision, quickness, and power, making him a formidable asset in the Jacksonville Jaguars' backfield.

Bigsby's role in the Jaguars' offense is poised to expand, especially given Travis Etienne's efficiency struggles and the team's shift towards a more balanced backfield approach. Bigsby could see a substantial increase in touches, which would elevate his fantasy relevance. He excels in short-yardage situations and at the goal line, and his ability to break through defenses on early downs makes him a valuable asset.

The competition for playing time will be fierce, with Bigsby needing to contend with both Travis Etienne and rookie Bhayshul Tuten. However, Bigsby's raw talent and performance last season suggest he can carve out a significant role. In 2024, he averaged 8.1 PPR points per game and had several standout performances, including games where he scored at least 13.2 PPR points. His effectiveness running the ball, with 4.6 yards per carry, is a strong indicator of his potential.

While Bigsby's involvement in the passing game is likely to remain limited, his ability to generate fantasy points through his rushing prowess makes him a solid late-round pick in most fantasy leagues. If he emerges as the No. 1 running back for the Jaguars or even becomes a key component in a committee, Bigsby could be a steal on draft day and a reliable flex option in all formats. Keep a close eye on the Jaguars' backfield during training camp, as Bigsby's performance could make him a hidden gem in your fantasy lineup.
