Fantasy Football Player Notes

For the sixth time in the last seven weeks, Etienne has finished as a top 12 RB on the week. His three-touchdown performance overshadowed his abysmal 12 carries for 32 yards on the ground last week. Instead, he made his hay with three receptions that all went for touchdowns and combined for 73 yards. With Bayshul Tuten set to miss the next few weeks after receiving surgery on his finger, Etienne is one of the true bell cow RBs down the stretch. Unfortunately, the stretch starts with a tough matchup against the Broncos. Although Jacobs found success on limited work last week against the Broncos, they are allowing the eighth-fewest fantasy points to the position since Week 10.
