Fantasy Football Snap Share Report: There are some concerning red flags for Travis Etienne Jr., even off 2-TD game

Snap share stock report time! This is where I examine snap share data from every single team and highlight some players that might have seen a notable spike or dip in playing time and/or usage.

SEAN TUCKER: STOCK UP

Obviously.

Beyond the 17 touchdowns he scored (Editor's note: actually just three TDs), Tucker, for the first time all season, cracked 50% snap share, playing 58% of the team's offensive snaps and outpacing Rachaad White (45.6% snap share).

The question really becomes, has he officially passed White on the depth chart? Bucky Irving's return is imminent and we're all working with the assumption that Bucky is the clear-cut starter.

For those of you saying there's absolutely no way Tucker can play this well and take a back seat, just remember: this wouldn't be the first time Tucker went ballistic only to be banished to the shadow realm the following week.

In Week 6 of 2024, with then-starter Rachaad White hurt, Tucker racked up nearly 200 scrimmage yards and scored two touchdowns with a 40% snap share. The very next week? White returned to action and Tucker played less than 20% of the snaps. He wasn't fantasy relevant for the rest of the season as Irving slowly took over.

New season, new circumstances, so new results can be had, but I point this out to say, Tucker is far from having a guaranteed role moving forward.

ADONAI MITCHELL: STOCK UP

I know this seems like a bizarro, contrarian pick, because Mitchell looked like he couldn't catch a cold in the North Pole in Week 11, but that being said, there's no question AD was creating separation.

The fact that he only played 49% of the snaps and yet led the team in targets says a lot about his potential role on this offense.

And remember, this was Mitchell's first full game in six weeks! With Tyrod Taylor taking over for at least a week, let's see if he provides some stability to the passing game - and if Mitchell gets his sea legs under him.

TRAVIS ETIENNE Jr.: STOCK NEUTRAL

Look, I know what you're thinking: How does a guy who scores two touchdowns not see his stock go up???" Well, if we're examining snap share and usage, which is what this space does, there are some concerning red flags.

His 50.7% snap share this past week was his lowest all season, and the team seemed very deliberate in getting Bhayshul Tuten the rock more.

Game script was a big factor for sure (Jacksonville destroyed LAC, 35-6) but Tuten's 15 carries were a season high. His previous season high was just nine.

Plus, over Etienne's last five games, his efficiency has suffered, as he's averaging just 3.7 yards per carry in that span. This is a far cry from the 5.8 ypc average he was sporting across his first five games.

Tuten has been more inconsistent but it's worth noting that over his last five outings, the rookie has averaged 4.1 ypc versus 3.8 ypc in his five games to start the season.

There are a few folks in the fantasy space going all out pushing the Tuten >>> Etienne" narrative and while I'm offering a much more reserved outlook, there's no question ETN's usage and efficiency are definitely raising some eyebrows.

LUTHER BURDEN III: STOCK UP

For the first time all season, Burden outsnapped Olamide Zacceaus, playing 44% of the snaps versus OZ's 14%.

Burden's 21 routes weren't all that productive (5/3/27 slash line) but literally infinitely better than Olamide's 0/0/0 line on seven routes run.

As we're past the halfway point in the season, let's see if the rookie's role and usage start to creep up, especially in the slot. He's currently playing just 33% of his snaps inside but he's been productive on limited looks.

It's a really small sample size but his 91 yards on five slot receptions works out to a super chunky 18.2 yards per reception. I don't think that's a sustainable number but it points to how explosive a weapon he can be while lined up inside.

TYRONE TRACY JR.: STOCK DOWN

It was close to a 50-50 snap split between Tracy (52%) and Devin Singletary (48%). Tracy had slightly more opportunities (carries + targets) with 23 versus Singletary's 17.

Tracy was more efficient (6.04 vs 2.76 yards/touch) but Singletary got literally every single goal-to-go carry, touching the ball SIX times from inside the 10 with Tracy seeing nary a sniff of the end zone.

I thought that, with the coaching change, Singletary (a long-time Daboll guy) would lose insider privileges but that ended up being extraordinarily wrong as offensive-coordinator-turned-interim-head-coach Mike Kafka leaned even more heavily on Singletary in high-leverage situations.

Much like Kenneth Walker III (more on him later) in the Pacific Northwest, it appears it will take divine intervention to get Tracy in the end zone moving forward. Across 101 total touches, he has just one touchdown to his name playing for an offense that is not very good.

Like Mankind versus Undertaker, Tracy is a hardcore SELL, SELL, SELL.

ISAIAH HODGINS: STOCK UP

With Darius Slayton (hamstring) on the shelf, the Giants sent Hodgins the You up?" text, plucking him off the Steelers practice squad and immediately inserting him into the starting lineup and playing him 78% of the snaps, second highest among NYG receivers.

This is now his fourth season playing for the Giants, all under Kafka. Prior to this, he actually played under Brian Daboll as a bit player for the Bills, so this is clearly a playbook he's comfortable with.

Jaylin Hyatt was involved as well (62%) but I think it's safe to assume if and when Slayton comes back, Hyatt will again be moved to a reserve role. And by the way, while we know Wan'Dale Robinson will be the team's slot man, I can be convinced that Hodgins, who played well, elevates into the team's primary outside receiver ahead of Slayton.

If we're ranking these receivers, give me the guy who is best equipped to work the intermediate area of the field. Per Next Gen Stats, 45 of Hodgins' 57 yards came between 10-15 yards downfield.

BROCK WRIGHT: STOCK UP

With Sam LaPorta on IR, Wright ended up filling the massive vacuum of snaps available at tight end. Playing a whopping 81.7% of the snaps, Wright ended up taking home a solid seven targets.

The volume didn't amount to much, just two receptions for a paltry eight yards, which is why Wright isn't a hot add off waivers. But the snap and target share is simply too high to ignore.

The offense overall is really good, meaning Wright should have solid red-zone upside in future weeks.

PAT FREIERMUTH: STOCK DOWN

I thought after his massive 111-yard, two-TD game against Cincy, the team would feature him more but alas, Arthur Smith is peaking right now.

The Fryer-Man played just 46% of the snaps this past week, and he's been below 50% in three of the four games following his big explosion game.On the flip side ...

DARNELL WASHINGTON: STOCK UP

... If one goes down, another must go up, I suppose. Washington played 71% of the snaps this past week and over his past seven games, he's averaging about 66% of the snaps, awfully close to the 70% threshold we like to see for sleeper tight ends.

I mentioned Arthur Smith. Well, it seems like his eyes have wandered from Jonnu Smith and are fully affixed to the behemoth Washington.

Standing 6'7" (go ahead and do the thing) and weighing north of 265 pounds, Washington has seen five+ targets in four of his last six games.

Washington is obviously a speculative add but there's a non-zero-percent chance that he unlocked something in his DNA this past week.

DARNELL WASHINGTON OH MY GLORIOUS STIFF ARM.

His catch-and-run against Cincy was one of the most physically imposing I've seen in many moons at the tight end spot.

And here's the thing: what if he accesses that inner Marshawn Lynch more regularly???? With Arthur Smith's unrequited love affair for tight ends, don't tell me there isn't a path to seeing Washington as a featured player on the Steelers to close out the season.

KENNETH WALKER III: STOCK NEUTRAL

As someone who has held the line as long as possible on Walker, it was extremely gratifying to see him look explosive and FINALLY score a touchdown versus a really good Rams defense. It was his first score since WEEK THREE.

That being said, he still only played 51% of the snaps and had 19 total opportunities so his usage really didn't improve dramatically.

His lone goal-line carry only came when Seattle was running a hurry-up drill and they didn't want to sub out and allow the Rams to sub in.

Over the first three weeks of the season, Walker had three goal-line carries against Zach Charbonnet's four. But since then, the team has employed an anyone but Walker" approach.

From Week 4 and beyond, Walker has seen six goal-line looks, Charbonnet 12, George Holani one and AJ Barner (A TIGHT END) has had two goal-to-go opportunities. You add in Sam Darnold's three goal-line carries in that span and we're looking at a paltry 25% goal-line carry share for Walker.

There's no reason for me to think that changes.

Play him if you got him, but he's severely capped as a fantasy asset if he's not given any opportunities to score touchdowns.

Other snap share notes:

• A name to highlight: Tyrell Shavers. The Bills play like 45 different receivers (Editor's note: six BUF receivers saw action Week 11) but Shavers' 53% snap share was tied for the team lead with Curtis Samuel and Khalil Shakir. If Keon Coleman has truly fallen out of favor with the coaching staff, Shavers could be a massive beneficiary. He's averaging 15.6 yards/rec across 11 receptions with a rock-solid 65% catch rate.

• Don't worry about Ricky Pearsall. His 73.1% snap share was tied with Jauan Jennings for most among SF WRs. His 23 routes run were just one away from the team lead. The Niners controlled the contest, and this was a massive George Kittle game.

• Calvin Ridley broke his fibula and is out for the season. In his stead, Van Jefferson played 91% of the snaps. He ran 37 routes and posted a very blah 7/3/22/TD line. If you want an aging receiver on a bad offense, be my guest.

• In regards to Jets, this Isaiah Williams character ran the most routes. He's a converted quarterback from Illinois who ran a 4.6 40-yard dash. John Metchie III led the receivers in snaps (82.5%). Metchie is the more interesting of the two.

• With the NFL trade deadline passed, Breece Hall saw dominant usage. He played 72% of the snaps.

• TreVeyon Henderson had a commanding 90% snap share but look for that number to come down considerably once Rhamondre Stevenson is ready to roll, perhaps even this week.

• Ollie Gordon II was back as the primary backup (39% snap share). Jaylen Wright played just one snap total.

• Greg Dulcich's playing time flattened out. He played 53% this past week, 58% the week prior.

• For the second time in three games, Tyjae Spears outsnapped Tony Pollard (53% vs 49%). It's trending to be a full-on 50-50 backfield in Tennessee.
