Did Leonard Fournette fit the new Jaguars offense?

The Jacksonville Jaguars have released running back Leonard Fournette after a year where he posted a career high in yards, but only scored three touchdowns. According to head coach Doug Marrone, this release is solely for on-the-field purposes, with the thought being that the running backs behind him would help the team succeed more.

Jaguars coach Doug Marrone says Leonard Fournette's release is all about what he's seen on field during camp -- not locker room issues. He feels like group of backs behind Fournette can give team better chance to win.
