Leonard Fournette (hip) logs full Buccaneers practice
Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Leonard Fournette (hip) practiced in full on Thursday.
What It Means:
Fournette didn't play Week 12 after being listed as a limited participant in all three practices last week, but Thursday's full session puts him on track to play on Monday night versus the New Orleans Saints. Rachaad White is still expected to lead the backfield ahead of Fournette in what will likely be around a 60-40 split.
numberFire's models project Lenny for 11.2 touches and 47.5 yards on Monday night while White is projected for 15.9 touches and 75.5 yards. The Saints have the No. 15 run defense in our advanced team metrics and they are No. 10 in FanDuel points allowed per game to the running back position this season.
