Jags RB Travis Etienne blocking out trade chatter: 'I just have to control what I can control'

The Jacksonville Jaguars' mandatory minicamp focuses on questions surrounding running back Travis Etienne. Following a challenging season where he lagged behind Tank Bigsby in rushing yards and with the team drafting two rookie runners, trade rumors have emerged. Head coach Liam Cohen has dismissed these rumors, but uncertainties remain about Etienne's role. Despite the speculation, Etienne is concentrating on his performance, acknowledging the importance of productivity in the league. After a promising start with consecutive 1,000-yard seasons, last year saw struggles with only 558 rushing yards. As he enters the final year of his rookie contract, Etienne is hopeful that a new coaching staff and positive habits will rejuvenate his performance. His grasp on the starting position will be tested during the minicamp.
