Jaguars running back and former first-round draft pick Leonard Fournette struggled last season, but he seems recommitted and is looking to bounce back and be one of the NFL’s elite. Here are three reasons why that will happen.
Fournette struggles last season included injuries, a suspension for one game by the NFL, and production. It is not what Jacksonville had in mind for their sophomore back who showed so much promise during his rookie season. He was expected to become one of the elite backs in the NFL, but now he is a back who is not just looking to elude defenders, but also avoid the dreaded “bust” label that comes when a top-five pick struggles.
