Jacksonville Jaguars head coach Urban Meyer said Sautrday first round draft pick Travis Etienne will take all his minicamp reps at wide receiver.

#Jaguars coach Urban Meyer told reporters that first-round RB Travis Etienne will take all of his minicamp reps at WR. “Worst case scenario you have a running back that's elite with receiver skills,” Meyer said. Similar, it seems, to Le’Veon Bell in his prime.
