Jaguars RB Leonard Fournette (quad) misses second practice this week

Dec 14, 2017

Jaguars RB Leonard Fournette has battled foot/ankle issues at various times this season, but a new injury has kept him out of practice both Wednesday and Thursday. It's a quad injury. It's possible the Jaguars could be limiting his practice reps to keep him fresh, but this bears monitoring on Friday's injury report.

Related players: T.J. Yeldon, Chris Ivory

Fantasy Impact:

Fournette bounced back with a great week against Seattle after a couple of duds, and his matchup this week is juicy, as Fournette posted 120+ total yards and a touchdown in his NFL debut against the Texans. In the two games Fournette has missed this season, Chris Ivory received 17 and 23 touches; meanwhile, T.J. Yeldon saw 11 and 13 touches.

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.
