The Jacksonville Jaguars are the consensus favorites to win the AFC South in 2023, and quarterback Trevor Lawrence is a dark horse MVP candidate in the eyes of many media pundits.
And with all the accolades Lawrence is sure to earn this year, head coach Doug Pederson believes many are sleeping on running back Travis Etienne, who he says has NFL leading rusher potential.
“He’s really embraced [gaining speed through the hole] this training camp,” Pederson told reporters on Wednesday. “That, to me, is the next step for him and that 11-12-13, now the yards start creeping up, and maybe he’s pushing 1,600 to 1,700 yards as a rusher.”
