Buccaneers Add RB Leonard Fournette to Injured Reserve

Leonard Fournette is in the midst of an impressive season for the Buccaneers, emerging as the team's bellcow running back a few weeks into the season. But Fournette's regular season is now over as he's been added to injured Reserve.

Fournette suffered a hamstring injury during last weekend's 9–0 loss to the Saints. He left the game with just nine carries for 34 yards, his fourth lowest output of the year on the ground this season.

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport confirmed that Fournette is going on IR. Tampa is reportedly optimistic Fournette will be ready to play when the postseason rolls around.
