Things are going from bad to worse for the Jaguars in 2024. As they look to turn things around after an awful 1-5 start to the season, they're dealing with the potential absence of RB Travis Etienne.

As Jacksonville looked to mount a comeback during its meeting with Chicago in London, Etienne was noticeably absent during an offensive drive. On the broadcast, it was revealed that a hamstring injury is limiting Jacksonville's RB.

Etienne's usage has varied throughout the season and while Jacksonville has bolstered its RB room, the team is still at its best with its full complement of players.
