Buccaneers 'likely' to place RB Leonard Fournette (hamstring) on IR

Buccaneers now are “likely” to place RB Leonard Fournette on injured reserve with the hamstring injury that left him on crutches Sunday night, per a league source. He then would miss rest of regular season.

Related players: Ronald Jones, Ke'Shawn Vaughn

Fantasy Impact: 

Fournette is expected to be return for the playoffs, per source. He was also expected to possibly miss two games anyway, so fantasy owners at least get some closure on a running back who may have very well helped to lead them to the playoffs. HC Bruce Arians has already said this will be the Jones show going forward, and so he should get a bulk of the work, which is why the team said they didn't want to move him back at the trade deadline. With the team banged up at WR, Jones is likely to get a heavy workload and certainly has RB1 potential in the fantasy playoffs.

Arians: Buccaneers RB1 job is Ronald Jones'

Bruce Arians says it's Ronald Jones' time now to do what Leonard Fournette did late last year when Jones got hurt. Arians says it's Jones's job right now.

Fantasy Impact: 

Fournette is expected to miss a game or two, but that game or two is also the fantasy semifinals and finals for a lot of leagues. ESPN's Mike Clay tweeted about Jones and how he produced in four games with Fournette out of the lineup last year: 26 touches, 128 yards; 20 touches, 125 yards; 25 touches, 121 yards, 2 TD; 19 touches, 84 yards, 1 TD. Those who already backed up for Fournette with Jones at least can feel good about plugging in a potential solid option for the next week or two. He'll be a must-add off the wire and a potential RB1 for Week 16. The Bucs play the Panthers, Jets and Panthers again to close the regular season.

Rapoport: Buccaneers RB Leonard Fournette (hamstring) to miss game or two

Leonard Fournette may miss some time, a game or two, but not a major injury.

Related players: Ronald Jones, Ke'Shawn Vaughn

Fantasy Impact: 

Unfortunately, a game or two at this stage of the season is a huge deal and depending on how things go the Bucs certainly could hold out Fournette the rest of the regular season with games against the Panthers, Jets and then the Panthers again to close the regular season. Jones should get a chance to be the lead back with Vaughn mixing in at times as well, probably mostly in the passing game and as a change of pace.

Buccaneers RB Leonard Fournette dealing with hamstring injury

In the third quarter, Leonard Fournette was helped to the locker room with what the team called a hamstring injury. He also did not return in the Bucs' 9-0 loss.

Related players: Ronald Jones, Ke'Shawn Vaughn

Fantasy Impact: 

It wasn't a good week for the Buccaneers who also lost Chris Godwin and Mike Evans at WR. Early reports say all players could be looking at being out for multiple weeks. If Fournette misses time, Jones likely takes over a bulk of the work, especially on early downs but don't be surprised if the once-popular Vaughn also gets work, especially on passing down.
