This is the second consecutive week that Tuten has been listed with this injury. However, one noteworthy difference from this week compared to last is that Tuten wasn’t wearing a non-contact pinnie this time, according to Mia O’Brien.
Will Jaguars‘ RB Bhayshul Tuten play in Week 4 vs. the 49ers?
Tuten will be available for this game. On the Jaguars’ final injury report, he does not have an injury designation.
Just like last week, although Tuten was limited all three days, he ended up being available on Sunday.
This season, Tuten has carried the ball 17 times and is averaging 4.4 yards per rush with a rushing touchdown. He also has two receptions for 32 yards and a score.

Since Tank Bigsby was traded, Tuten has stepped into the RB2 role behind Travis Etienne. While Etienne handles the bulk of the workload, when Tuten is on the field, there is a concerted effort to get him the ball.
Along with Tuten, the Jaguars also get fellow rookie running back LeQuint Allen involved in more obvious passing situations where he can help out as a blocker or in pass protection.
