The Tampa Bay Buccaneers were hoping to get running back Leonard Fournette in some capacity for Sunday’s playoff game against the Philadelphia Eagles. But it looks like that won’t be happening.
The team did not say he was activated Saturday, leaving him unavailable for the Wild Card game at home. Head coach Bruce Arians was monitoring the situation closely with Fournette this week at practice, saying that his starting tailback and linebacker Lavonte David would be the most questionable for Sunday. But Fournette’s hamstring strain going back to Week 15 was not good enough to at least be activated Saturday.
