Fantasy Impact

With the Jaguars having nothing to play for, it sounds as if the team will keep Fournette out of action Week 17. If Fournette is ruled out, he will finish 2019 with 265 carries for 1,152 yards rushing to go along with 76 catches for 522 yards receiving and three total touchdowns across 15 games. Fantasy owners should monitor Fournette's status closer to Sunday's 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff to ensure he is inactive. Look for Ryquell Armstead to lead the Jaguars backfield for the season finale.

Fantasy Impact

Fournette missed practice both Thursday and Friday's due to a neck injury. With the Jaguars having nothing to play for, the team might not push their star running back into action. Fantasy owners should monitor his status 90 minutes before Sunday's 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff. If Fournette is ruled out Week 17, look for Ryquell Armstead to lead the Jaguars backfield.

Leonard Fournette was downgraded from limited to DNP during Thursday's practice session with a neck injury.

Fantasy Impact

Fournette does not appear to be too concerned about his availability heading into Sunday's regular season finale against the Indianapolis Colts. His status for Sunday should be a bit clearer depending on his level of participation in practice Friday.

Leonard Fournette rushed 15 times for 71 yards in the Jaguars' Week 16 loss to the Falcons by a 24-12 score, adding three receptions for 34 additional yards.

Fantasy Impact

Fournette got off to a hot start this season but has cooled off as the year has gone on. The 24-year-old running back has not rushed for over 100 yards in a game since Week 7 and has not scored a TD since Week 12. Fournette is still worth starting in 12 team leagues and deeper as he should see a large workload for the team.
