Ronald Jones won’t play for the Buccaneers on Sunday

Ronald Jones won’t play for the Buccaneers on Sunday, Adam Schefter of ESPN.com reports. Jones has an ankle injury that has prohibited him from playing this postseason. The Bucs, at this point, aren’t sure who will be starting at running back. Leonard Fournette, who is dealing with a hamstring injury, has yet to be activated off of the injured reserve. The Bucs have until 4 p.m. EST on Saturday to make that decision. If they don’t activate him by the 4 p.m. deadline, he can’t play Sunday. Giovani Bernard, who came off of IR before the game versus the Eagles last week, could split the starting role with Ke’Shawn Vaughn if Fournette cannot play.
