Did Travis Etienne take a shot at Urban Meyer?
On Tuesday, Etienne — who missed his entire rookie season in 2021 after suffering a Lisfranc injury in the preseason — was asked if any part of him was glad he didn’t have to go through “that” last season with the Jacksonville Jaguars under their former head coach, Urban Meyer, who was fired in December following a tumultuous 2-11 stint during which there was plenty of drama and incidents on and off the field.
In response to the aforementioned question, the former Clemson running back and first-round pick of the Jaguars in the 2021 NFL Draft joked that he picked a “great” year to miss.
“Nah, nah, definitely, that’s just the human element of it. Just seeing the results, you’re definitely like, ‘Phew, if there was any year to miss, I missed a great one,’” Etienne said.
