According to Jacksonville Jaguars' head coach Doug Marrone, Leonard Fournette is not going to be "automatically installed" as the team's lead back. Instead, Fournette will have to "go and show" that he deserves the role. (ESPN)
Fantasy Impact
While it's unlikely that the Jaguars won't utilize the fourth-overall pick from the get-go, Fournette's workload could be affected by the crowded backfield in Jacksonville. T.J. Yeldon and Chris Ivory have the potential to siphon carries and could limit Fournette's ceiling in fantasy production if this were to happen. Even though this is most likely coach-speak to push the rookie, the situation should be monitored throughout the summer.
