Leonard Fournette Expects To Play Sunday
4 years agoTampa Bay Buccaneers running back Leonard Fournette (ankle) will warm-up prior to Sunday’s game, but so long as he has no setbacks, is expected to play versus Green Bay. Fournette last received carries Week 3 against Denver, having battled an ankle injury that has limited him in practice. In the case that he does play, he’ll be far from 100 percent, with reports also having LeSean McCoy set to take on a bigger role behind Ronald Jones II. While Jones is still the most fantasy relevant of the backs, the Bucs’ backfield becomes a bit crowded with Fournette back in the mix. Yet to play more than 50 percent of the team’s offensive snaps this season, Fournette is a risky fantasy asset, although could be a high-upside play for those interested in the afternoon slate on DFS.
