Gus Edwards vs Tank Bigsby: The Full Breakdown
If you are choosing between Gus Edwards and Tank Bigsby for your lineup, you are not alone. Gus Edwards finished the 2025 season at 7.0 PPG for the Los Angeles Chargers (13 games), and Tank Bigsby averaged 8.6 for the Jacksonville Jaguars (16 games).
That 1.6-point weekly advantage for Tank Bigsby is meaningful but not automatic. Fantasy football is a week-to-week sport, and the answer to "who should I start" often changes based on opponent, recent form, and game environment. Season averages set the baseline; weekly context makes the call.
Both profile as early-down workhorses. Gus Edwards ran for 468 yards and 4 touchdowns; Tank Bigsby posted 745 and 6. Goal-line share, red zone touches, and which team is favored are usually the tiebreaker when neither back offers passing-game volume.
Gus Edwards has his bye in Week 5, and Tank Bigsby rests in Week 12. Managers rostering both need waiver wire depth at running back for those two weeks, and that is exactly the kind of planning DraftCall's matchup engine surfaces automatically so you are not scrambling on a Sunday morning.
