Leonard Fournette has had a stellar season for Tampa Bay this season
Fournette, 26 years old, has always had a lot of talent. However, in his early days at Jacksonville, he appeared to be another gifted youth who squandered his potential because of behavioral concerns. Because of his actions back then, the RB was cut from the Jaguars’ roster. Before last season, the Bucs signed the free agent, and the rest is history.
With the Bucs, Leonard has had a fantastic start to his career. The former Jacksonville running back currently leads Tampa Bay in rushing yards with 413 (4.4 yards per carry). Moreover, he also has recorded four touchdowns in seven games. He’s also a danger in the passing game, catching 27 catches for 222 yards and a touchdown.
