Leonard Fournette to miss playoff game vs. Eagles due to hamstring injury

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers will have to wait another week before they can get back one of their biggest postseason weapons. Running back Leonard Fournette will miss Sunday's game against the Philadelphia Eagles due to a hamstring injury, the team announced.

Fournette sustained the injury in Week 15 and was placed on injured reserve. Fournette was eligible to return for Sunday's game. He returned to practice Wednesday, but did not make enough progress to be activated in time to play against the Eagles.

Fournette entered the season expecting to share reps with Ronald Jones.
