Former Jaguars RB Leonard Fournette to sign with Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Former Jaguars running back Leonard Fournette will be signing with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, according to multiple reports.

Fournette confirmed the signing via social media in a post that simply showcased the former fourth-overall pick donning new Buccaneers garb. It didn’t take Fournette long after clearing waivers on Tuesday to find his new home.

In a surprising move made on Monday, the Jaguars waived the franchise rusher with Jaguars head coach Doug Marrone indicating that the move was strictly football.

“At the end of the day, I just felt that was the best decision for us as a team,” Marrone said on Monday.
