Jags RB Leonard Fournette expected to play Week 10

Nov 06, 2017

Jaguars coach Doug Marrone benched rookie running back Leonard Fournette for violating team rules on Sunday, but Marrone said after the game that he’s not expecting any problems with Fournette going forward.

Marrone told reporters that Fournette will play next week when the Jaguars take on the Chargers, and that there are no concerns about Fournette’s professionalism.

Fantasy Impact:

The story went on to say the Jaguars clearly wanted to send a message to Fournette that being a top-five draft pick doesn’t make him above the team’s rules, and it may have worked: The Jaguars were just fine with Chris Ivory filling in for Fournette as the top running back, and they won without him.

“I will be playing on Sunday. Very excited, can’t pass up playing the Packers. I will be out there for sure.”

Kittle returns to a great matchup against a Packers defense that ranks 26th in TE aFPA. He should be fired up as a high-end TE1 once again.

Per Bears head coach Matt Eberflus: Ryan Bates remains in the concussion protocol. Elijah Hicks (ankle) and D'Andre Swift (groin) won't practice.

Teven Jenkins will be limited.

Related Players: Roschon Johnson, Travis Homer

Fantasy Impact:

This is definitely a situation to keep an eye on, as Johnson would have a huge workload if Swift were to miss Week 12. Homer has three rush attempts and zero targets on the year.
