Profile Context
Bhayshul Tuten is a running back for the Jacksonville Jaguars. He is not a rookie entering 2026, he was a 2025 NFL Draft pick, so 2026 is a Year 2 profile, not a college-only rookie writeup.
- College path: Tuten began his college career at North Carolina A&T (an HBCU program) before transferring to Virginia Tech for his final collegiate season, where he was a productive lead back.
- Draft/combine: He tested as one of the fastest running backs in his class at the 2025 NFL Scouting Combine and was drafted by Jacksonville in the middle rounds of the 2025 NFL Draft.
- Rookie-year role: As a rookie in 2025 he was part of a Jaguars backfield led by incumbent starter Travis Etienne Jr., under first-year head coach Liam Coen. General coverage of his rookie season through this session's knowledge cutoff described early ball-security (fumble) concerns as a factor limiting his early trust and touches. For 2026 fantasy purposes, the question is whether that speed turns into a bankable weekly role behind or alongside Travis Etienne Jr.
What To Watch
Tuten's Nova page carries the live rank, tier, VORP, ADP, outcome bands, SOS, and team context directly above this profile. Use those numbers as the draft anchor. The written profile is intentionally narrower: it frames the role bet. If his pass protection and ball security earn trust in Jacksonville, the athletic ceiling matters. If the backfield stays concentrated around Etienne, Tuten is a bench stash whose value depends on injury, game script, or a clear summer role change.
Bhayshul Tuten is Nova's 78th-ranked player overall (RB, JAX), in Tier 7. Nova projects roughly 121 points this season, about 8.24 per game.
He is a reach by Nova's math: the market takes him around pick 54, ahead of Nova's 78.
Nova sits below the Vegas market on him (divergence -31). His fantasy-playoff schedule (weeks 15-17) looks soft.
