NFL: New Orleans Saints at Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Leonard Fournette was not at Friday’s practice, Fox Sports’ Greg Auman reports.
Fournette randomly popped up on the injury report on Thursday with a foot issue. A missed Friday practice would suggest Uncle Lenny is trending towards missing week 14 vs. the 49ers.
It’s been the tale of two halves for the 27-year-old. After a scorching hot start to the season, Fournette has failed to finish as a top 15 running back since week six.
Rachaad White would return to lead back duties against the Niners if Fournette is sidelined.
It’s a difficult matchup for White, but his passing game involvement should put him in RB2 territory in PPR leagues. The rookie has 17 targets over this past two games.
Expected volume, should have White in majority of fantasy lineups this week.
