THE JAGS GET ON THE BOARD‼️ Bhayshul Tuten weaves his way into the end zone to score vs. Houston. (via @NFL) https:// Via @YahooSports on X

What happened: Jacksonville Jaguars running back Bhayshul Tuten wove into the end zone against Houston on Sunday for his team's first points in London, then hauled in a touchdown reception before halftime. The two scores came after an earlier Tuten touchdown in the Week 6 regular-season matchup was negated by an offensive holding penalty.

Why it matters: Tuten, the same Bhayshul Tuten who drew preseason attention in Jacksonville, is expanding his role as both a runner and pass-catcher in his second NFL season. Delivering in the red zone gives the Jaguars a versatile scoring threat during the 2026 regular-season slate.

By the numbers: Tuten recorded 2 touchdowns in Sunday's Week 6 game in London on Oct. 18, 2026. Drafted 104th overall in the fourth round of the 2025 NFL Draft out of Virginia Tech, Tuten rushed 83 times for 307 yards and 5 touchdowns across 15 games for the Jaguars in the 2025 season, per ESPN (as of Sept. 29, 2026).

What to watch: Jacksonville looks to protect its lead in the second half in London as Tuten continues to work into the high-leverage backfield rotation.
