3 years agoTampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Bruce Arians said that running back Ronald Jones II (ankle) was in a walking boot on Wednesday, which is why he missed practice. However, Arians isn't yet ruling Jones out for Sunday's game against the Carolina Panthers in the Week 18 regular season finale. The fact that Jones won't try to run until later this week doesn't bode well for his chances of playing this weekend, though. Leonard Fournette won't return until the playoffs, but Ke'Shawn Vaughn (ribs), who is also dealing with an injury, practiced in full on Wednesday and should be available to play against Carolina. If Jones is limited or out against the Panthers, Vaughn and veteran Le'Veon Bell figure to split the workload.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
