Leonard Fournette Leads Backfield In Touches
3 years agoTampa Bay Buccaneers running back Leonard Fournette carried the ball 11 times for 52 rushing yards, adding four receptions for 24 receiving yards in a 48-25 blowout win over Atlanta. Fournette's 4.7 yards per carry average suggests he had no trouble finding running room against Atlanta, though fantasy managers would have hoped for more with such a positive game script on hand. Even so, it's encouraging that the LSU product seems to have the trust of the coaching staff after his strong postseason, as he's had solid volume in both the rushing and passing games through two weeks of play. However, a tough test against the Rams awaits in Week 3.
