Leonard Fournette Has Surprisingly Tough Matchup
5 years agoYou wouldn't usually associate Tampa Bay Buccaneers Defense and good together, but this season the Bucs have allowed the third-fewest PPR points to opposing running backs. That puts Jacksonville Jaguars running back Leonard Fournette in a tough spot on Sunday. His volume should allow him to finish with solid numbers and his newfound usage as a receiver helps raise his floor, but Fournette's efficiency as a runner isn't great and this is the kind of game where he could be shut down on the ground. You should still start him as an RB2, but there is real reason to worry that this is a letdown game for Fournette.
