Tank Bigsby — 2026 Fantasy Outlook

Bigsby brought a well-rounded early-down skill set to the Jacksonville backfield, vision to find the right crease, quickness to exploit it, and enough power to finish through contact in short-yardage and goal-line situations. He has the burst to make defenses pay when lanes open, though ball security was a concern during his 2022 college season.

His Auburn career spanned 35 games and produced 2,903 rushing yards on 540 carries with 25 touchdowns, plus 62 catches for 448 yards on 89 targets. His best season came in 2021 with 223 carries for 1,099 yards and 10 scores alongside 21 receptions for 184 yards.

Jacksonville eased Bigsby in as a rookie, handing him 50 carries for 132 yards and two touchdowns, with both scores coming within the first three weeks. The Jaguars limited him to 141 snaps and one catch on four targets. His two busiest games (9/21 and 10/32) produced nothing of note in the yardage department.

2024 started slowly, with just 21 carries over the first four games, but Bigsby flashed his potential twice in that stretch (12/73 and 7/90) before Jacksonville opened the door wider in Weeks 5, 7, and 8 — producing lines of 13/101/2 with a 28-yard catch, 26/118/2, and 18/78 with two receptions for eight yards. An ankle injury in Week 10 cost him a game. Bigsby scored three times over his final five outings and averaged 13.8 touches, but his efficiency told a more sobering story (just 3.3 yards per carry on 66 attempts for 219 yards), with almost no receiving contribution (three catches for 11 yards on six targets).

The Eagles acquired Bigsby in early September last season. His arrival led to a split RB2 role in snaps behind Saquon Barkley, but he was the better runner (58/344/2 – 5.9 yards per carry). Philadelphia gave him only four targets on the year, leading to three catches for 32 yards. His best fantasy value came in Week 8 (9/104) and Week 18 (106 combined yards with a touchdown and one catch).
