3 years agoTampa Bay Buccaneers running back Leonard Fournette gets a favorable matchup against the Eagles in Week 6. Fournette has fully taken the reins to Tampa Bay's backfield, handling 25 and 17 touches in the last two weeks while exceeding the 100-yard scrimmage mark in each game. As seven-point road favorites with quarterback Tom Brady (thumb) slightly banged up, the Buccaneers could opt to lean on the running game more in Week 6. That would bode well for Fournette's fantasy outlook against an Eagles defense that has allowed the fourth-most rushing yards to running backs this year. Start him as a strong RB2 Thursday night.--Tim Capurso
