AFC Championship loss to Patriots still haunts Leonard Fournette

The 2017 AFC Championship Game was a highly-contested battle former Jacksonville Jaguars running back Leonard Fournette will never forget.

Neither will Patriots fans considering New England won the game by a 24-20 margin on a game-winning touchdown catch from former receiver Danny Amendola.

For his part, Fournette had a big hand in the game. He finished with 24 carries for 76 yards and a touchdown. The touchdown gave Jacksonville a 14-3 lead at the time.

However, it was one particular play that went New England’s way that still haunts Fournette. New England ran a trick play in the fourth quarter, where Amendola was the recipient of a screen pass.
