JAC RB #1 Att151Yds583TD7FL0 Etienne entered the league as a first-round draft choice by then Jaguars head coach Urban Meyer in 2021. His rookie season was lost entirely after suffering a Lisfranc injury. His second season was impre sive, as he accumulated more than 1,500 total yards of offense and five touchdowns despite acclimating to Doug Pederson's system. Through eight games in 2023, he has eight offensive touchdowns and just eight receptions fewer than he had in 17 games a year ago. The Clemson product is on pace for 1,239 rushing yards and 565 receiving yards. Etienne currently ranks fourth in rushing yards and third in rushing touchdowns. running backs and are a few others who may have a strong case for the Pro Bowl by season's end. Neither has been selected to the Pro Bowl previously, but each has been incredibly effective for one of the most dynamic offenses in football. CHI RB Att135Yds614TD3FL1 Swift has been a valuable addition for the Philadelphia offense. In addition to his 542 rushing yards, which is the fifth Tyler Beede Jersey -most league-wide and the second-most by any NFC running back, and five rushing touchdowns, Swift has 28 receptions for 135 yards and a touchdown for the 8-1 Eagles.

His 38 first-down receptions are fourth-most in the league.When returned from injury, many wondered how that may impact Nacua. Prior to Kupp's return, the rookie averaged 9.75 receptions for 125.25 yards on 13 targets per game. Since, he has averaged five receptions for 62.5 yards on 8.8 targets.

The first-round talent out of Georgia has been hampered by injury but still has four sacks on the year. SEA CB #21 Witherspoon plays with supreme confidence. He understands what he's seeing and reacts quickly, whether that is rallying downhill to make a tackle in run support or to help break up a pa s in coverage downfield.
