Leonard Fournette Active For Week 14
Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Leonard Fournette (foot) is officially active for Week 14 versus the San Francisco 49ers. He had been listed as questionable. The 27-year-old has 106 rushing yards, 33 receiving yards, and one touchdown over his last two games, splitting work with up-and-coming rookie Rachaad White. Fournette is a high-end RB3 this week while White ranks as a steady RB2.

Leonard Fournette Expected To Suit Up On Sunday
Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Leonard Fournette (foot) is expected to play on Sunday against the 49ers, according to ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter. The veteran didn't practice on Friday, casting serious doubt regarding his availability. However, barring a setback, it appears he'll be out there. Fournette and Rachaad White split carries in the narrow comeback win over the Saints in Week 13. Both men also had six catches, although the rookie was more productive, thanks to a touchdown reception. The arrangement will probably remain the same in Week 14, which isn't ideal for either player. That said, Fournette and White should still be considered flex options, with the latter having a slightly higher ceiling.

Leonard Fournette Questionable For Week 14
Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Leonard Fournette (foot) has officially been listed as questionable ahead of the team's Week 14 bout with the San Francisco 49ers. Fournette did not participate in practice on Friday after practicing in a limited fashion on Thursday. Head coach Todd Bowles described Fournette's foot as "sore" but expressed optimism that he will suit up. Fantasy managers who are relying on Fournette as an RB2 should prepare a backup plan just in case the veteran is forced to miss Sunday's contest. Despite a difficult matchup, Rachaad White would become a must-start option if Fournette were ruled out.

Leonard Fournette Dealing With Foot Injury
Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Leonard Fournette (foot) was added to the Week 14 injury report while putting in a limited practice on Thursday. It's a new injury for Fournette and is something to keep an eye on. In Week 13, the 27-year-old ended up with one more touch than backfield mate Rachaad White. He also gained more on the ground and through the air, as he ended with 81 all-purpose yards. He'll likely split opportunities with White again in Week 14 if he's active, but he still forecasts as a top-25 option at running back.

Leonard Fournette, Russell Gage Active Against Saints
Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Leonard Fournette (hip) and wide receiver Russell Gage (hamstring) are both active on Monday night against the New Orleans Saints. Fournette suffered a hip-pointer injury in Week 10 and will be returning for the first time since then on Monday night. The 27-year-old's return will hurt the overall fantasy upside of rookie Rachaad White, but White could still be in line for most of the backfield touches after seeing 45 touches for 214 scrimmage yards in the last two games. Fantasy managers should consider Lenny a touchdown-dependent RB3/flex in his return on Monday. Meanwhile, Gage will be active for the first time since Week 7, so fantasy managers should stay away. He'll be behind Mike Evans, Chris Godwin and Julio Jones in the receiving pecking order.

Leonard Fournette Questionable For Week 13
Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Leonard Fournette (hip) practiced on Saturday. Fournette has now logged two consecutive full sessions, so he appears to be moving in the right direction regarding his status for the Week 13 meeting with the Saints. Fournette ceded touches to Rachaad White in the Week 10 clash against the Seahawks. He also didn't play in the Week 12 overtime loss to Cleveland, after the team's bye, allowing White to log 14 carries for 64 yards while catching all nine targets for 45 yards. Despite Fournette's expected availability on Monday night, White's uptick in production over the last two games may keep the rookie on the field. There's a good chance both men will be involved in a timeshare versus New Orleans, so they should each be viewed as a flex option in all fantasy formats.

Leonard Fournette Practices In Full Friday
Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Leonard Fournette (hip) was listed as a full participant in the team's practice on Friday. Fournette missed Week 12 but appears to be good to go for Monday night's matchup against the New Orleans Saints. Rookie Rachaad White shined in Fournette's absence and actually started ahead of the veteran in Week 10, but it is unclear who will lead the way going forward. The Saints have been stout against fantasy running backs this season, so it's difficult to view Fournette as anything more than a flex option heading into Week 13.

Leonard Fournette, Russell Gage Practicing Thursday
Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Leonard Fournette (hip) and wide receiver Russell Gage (hamstring) are both practicing on Thursday to begin the week. They'll both probably be listed as limited participants, but it's good news nonetheless. Fournette was held out of the Week 12 overtime loss to the Cleveland Browns due to a hip-pointer injury he suffered in Week 10. Rookie Rachaad White led the backfield with 23 touches without Fournette on the field. Even if Fournette returns to face the New Orleans Saints on Monday night, he could take a back seat to White moving forward. Gage hasn't played in a game since Week 7. If he returns this weekend, he'll be fighting for scraps behind Mike Evans, Chris Godwin and Julio Jones, making him one to avoid for starting lineups, even in deeper leagues.

Leonard Fournette Ruled Out For Week 12
Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Leonard Fournette (hip) has been ruled out for the Week 12 matchup against the Cleveland Browns. The 27-year-old is still dealing with a hip injury that he suffered in Week 10. The Bucs are expected to use a committee approach to fill the void with Fournette unavailable. Rookie back Rachaad White is likely to have a heavy workload on Sunday. He's looking like a favorable flex option against a Browns defense that struggles to contain the rushing attack. Also, Giovani Bernard has been activated off the injured reserve. He should serve as the primary backup to White on Sunday. Possibly, Ke'Shawn Vaughn gets involved as well, but he won't be worth looking at in fantasy formats.

Leonard Fournette Listed As Doubtful
Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Leonard Fournette (hip) has been listed as doubtful to play in Week 12 against the Cleveland Browns on Sunday. Fantasy managers will need to remove Fournette from their weekly starting lineups. With the 27-year-old likely out this weekend, rookie Rachaad White should see a heavy workload in Tampa's backfield while going up against a porous Browns run defense that has allowed the second-most points to opposing running backs this year in half-point PPR setups. Fournette is dealing with a hip pointer that he suffered in Week 10, and it's not a good sign that he's not ready to go after the team's Week 10 bye. Even when Fournette returns, White could be Tampa's lead dog in the backfield the rest of the way.

Leonard Fournette To Be Game-Day Decision
Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Leonard Fournette (hip) has practiced in a limited fashion this week leading up to the game against the Cleveland Browns. Fournette suffered the injury in Week 10 against the Seattle Seahawks in Germany before Tampa Bay went on a Week 11 bye. He will reportedly be a game-day decision. If he's active, he'll be in a timeshare with rookie Rachaad White, who posted his first 100-yard rushing game against Seattle. Both will be solid flex plays, but either is at risk of producing a dud in the shared backfield. If Fournette is out, White is virtually a must-start against the Cleveland defense that has allowed the second-most fantasy points to running backs through 11 weeks.

Bucs To Ride Hot Hand At Running Back
Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Todd Bowles said the team would ride the hot hand at running back between Leonard Fournette and Rachaad White. Fournette is "pretty sore" with a hip injury he suffered in the Germany game and was a limited participant in practice Wednesday. "We'll see how he (Fournette) progresses, and if he can go, he'll go; if he can't, he won't," said Bowles. White filled in admirably when Fournette exited early in the Germany game against the Seahawks, rushing 22 times for 105 yards. Tampa Bay will ride the hot hand, and White could see the lion's share of the carries from the Bucs backfield after his Week 10 performance. Fantasy managers can start Fournette and White as flex plays until the backfield situation sorts itself out within the next few weeks.

Leonard Fournette Dealing With Hip Injury
Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Leonard Fournette (hip) suffered a hip pointer injury in Week 10 against the Seattle Seahawks in Germany. The Buccaneers had their bye last week, giving the veteran running back time to heal from the injury. However, head coach Todd Bowles said Fournette is very sore. Bowles added that if the veteran can run at full speed during practice this week, Fournette would play on Sunday. However, if the former LSU star can't play, third-round rookie Rachaad White would get his first career start against the Cleveland Browns. The former Arizona State star had 105 rushing in the Week 10 matchup against the Seahawks, a career-high.

Leonard Fournette Likely To Be Ready After Bye
Despite suffering a hip pointer in the Week 10 win over the Seattle Seahawks in Germany, Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Leonard Fournette (hip) is likely to be ready to play against the Cleveland Browns in Week 12 after the team's bye, according to sources. It's good news for Fournette's fantasy managers, but the question will now become, will rookie Rachaad White continue to see more backfield work after out-carrying Lenny 22 to 14 and outrushing him 105 to 57 in the win over Seattle. Despite the injury late in the game, Fournette averaged 4.1 yards per carry and scored on the ground. Even if Fournette doesn't miss any time with his hip pointer, it's clear that White has earned a larger share of the work next to Fournette in this backfield, making Fournette's rest-of-season outlook a bit cloudy.

Leonard Fournette Dealing With Hip Pointer
Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Leonard Fournette has a hip pointer and will be evaluated further, head coach Todd Bowles told the media. Fournette operated behind Rachaad White in Week 10 but still managed to produce 58 scrimmage yards and one touchdown. The Buccaneers are heading into their bye week, so Fournette has plenty of time to recover before Tampa Bay takes on the Cleveland Browns in Week 12.

Leonard Fournette Doubtful To Return Sunday
Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Leonard Fournette (hip) is doubtful to return against the Seattle Seahawks in Week 10. It has been a rough game for the veteran back, who lost his starting job to Rachaad White, threw an interception on a failed trick play, and then exited with his injury. He finished the day with 14 carries, 57 rushing yards, and one touchdown. On a positive note, the Buccaneers are on bye next week, so Fournette has plenty of time to recover.

Leonard Fournette Active In Week 3
Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Leonard Fournette (hamstring) is active for Week 3 against the Green Bay Packers. He had been listed as questionable. With Mike Evans (suspension), Chris Godwin (hamstring), and Julio Jones (knee) sidelined, the Buccaneers could rely on a heavy dose of Fournette against Green Bay this week. He should be viewed as a fringe top-12 back in fantasy football.

Leonard Fournette Expected To Play In Week 3
Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Leonard Fournette (hamstring) is expected to play against the Green Bay Packers in Week 3, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. He had been listed as questionable. Fournette has amassed 192 rushing yards and 19 receiving yards this season, putting him at RB19 on the year (in PPR leagues). With Mike Evans suspended and many other receivers dealing with injuries, the Buccaneers could rely on the running game against Green Bay this week. Fournette should be viewed as a fringe top-12 back in fantasy football.

Leonard Fournette Given Questionable Tag
Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Leonard Fournette (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Week 3 against the Green Bay Packers after putting in limited practices all week. Fournette was also questionable last week against the New Orleans Saints, but he suited up and played 87 percent of the offensive snaps while handling 24 carries for 65 yards. So far, rookie Rachaad White hasn't been a threat to the 27-year-old's lead-back role in Tampa through two weeks of the season. As long as Lenny doesn't suffer a setback on Saturday, it would be a surprise if he's not active against Green Bay. Fantasy managers should consider him a low-end RB1 play in Week 3.

Leonard Fournette Limited To Begin The Week
Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Leonard Fournette (hamstring) was listed as a limited participant in Wednesday's practice. Fournette has been bothered by a minor hamstring injury early this year, but he managed to play 87 percent of the offensive snaps in the Week 2 win over the New Orleans Saints, carrying the ball 24 times for 65 yards. He also caught two of four targets for nine yards. Barring some sort of setback, the 27-year-old lead back should be just fine for a Week 3 meeting with the Green Bay Packers on Sunday. While fantasy managers wouldn't mind a little more production from Lenny, the good news is rookie Rachaad White hasn't been a threat to his workload so far through the first two weeks.

Leonard Fournette Active For Week 2
Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Leonard Fournette (hamstring) is officially active for Week 2 against the New Orleans Saints. He entered Sunday listed as questionable after being limited in practice all week. Fournette was quite impressive against the Cowboys in Week 1, totaling 137 scrimmage yards. With Chris Godwin (hamstring) and Julio Jones (knee) sidelined in Week 2, Fournette should remain a pivotal part of the Bucs' gameplan. He projects as a low-end RB1 and should be started in all fantasy football leagues.

Leonard Fournette Likely Good To Go Against Saints
Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Leonard Fournette (hamstring) is expected to play on Sunday against New Orleans. The veteran is dealing with a hamstring ailment, forcing him to practice in a limited capacity during the week. Fortunately, it doesn't appear serious enough to keep him off the field for the NFC South matchup. Fournette looked good against the Cowboys in Week 1, finishing the night with 127 yards off 21 carries while catching both of his targets for 10 yards. Nonetheless, despite the potential that Fournette could be limited physically, fantasy managers should keep him going in Week 2, even against a challenging Saints defense.

Leonard Fournette Draws Questionable Tag
Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Leonard Fournette (hamstring) is listed as questionable for the Week 2 contest against the New Orleans Saints. Fournette was able to practice on a limited basis all week, so there seems to be a pretty good chance that he'll be active and serving as the team's lead back this weekend. The 27-year-old played 76 percent of the offensive snaps and handled 21 carries for 127 yards in the Week 1 win over the Dallas Cowboys, also chipping in two catches for 10 yards. Fantasy managers will want to check his status again on Sunday morning, but if he's active, Fournette is an RB1 play. If he's inactive or limited at all against the Saints, rookie Rachaad White would be in for a bigger workload.

Leonard Fournette Remains Limited Thursday
Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Leonard Fournette (hamstring) was a limited participant in practice on Thursday for the second straight day. It's good news for the Bucs after receivers Mike Evans (calf), Chris Godwin (hamstring) and Julio Jones (knee) all missed practice. Godwin was already expected to miss Week 2 against the New Orleans Saints, but if one or both of Evans and Jones are also inactive, it will just mean even more work for Fournette and rookie backup Rachaad White. The 27-year-old Fournette had 21 carries for 127 yards and also caught both of his targets for 10 yards in the Week 1 win over the Dallas Cowboys. Barring something unforeseen, Fournette should check in as a low-end RB1 for fantasy managers this weekend.

Leonard Fournette Dealing With Hamstring Injury
Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Leonard Fournette (hamstring) was listed as being a limited participant in practice on Wednesday. It doesn't appear that Fournette is dealing with a serious injury, as he handled 76% of the snaps in Sunday night's Week 1 win over the Dallas Cowboys, carrying the ball 21 times for 127 yards while also catching both of his targets for 10 yards. However, it's a reminder that Fournette's fantasy managers may want to handcuff him with rookie Rachaad White. As long as Fournette doesn't suffer a setback this week, he'll be a must-start in a divisional clash with the New Orleans Saints in Week 2.
