Leonard Fournette Will Play Sunday
3 years agoThe Tampa Bay Buccaneers activated running back Leonard Fournette (hamstring) from Injured Reserve on Saturday, and he will play on Sunday against the Los Angeles Rams in the Divisional Round, according to a source. Fournette has been out since Week 16 with a hamstring injury, but he's expected to be Tampa's lead RB on Sunday. Ronald Jones II (ankle) will miss his third straight game, so expect Ke'Shawn Vaughn and Giovani Bernard to serve as change-of-pace options if Fournette needs more breathers than usual because of his long layoff. The 27-year-old will be a risk/reward DFS option and could lose passing-down work to Bernard, who looked pretty good in his return from IR in the wild-card win over the Philadelphia Eagles last week.
