Injury Update On Buccaneers Leonard Fournette

He exited Week 10's game against the Seattle Seahawks with a hip injury.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Leonard Fournette practiced in a limited capacity on Wednesday.

Fournette suffered a hip pointer in the Buccaneers' last game. Even with the bye week, the running back is still ''very sore,'' according to head coach Todd Bowles.

This appears to be the play that Leonard Fournette injured his hip.

I don’t really see much but I think based on the video and pictures included where he has that left hip padded it could be a hip pointer (bruise)

It will be worth keeping an eye on Fournette's practice status going forward this week. The good news for the Bucs is that Rachaad White looked more than capable taking over for Fournette in Week 10's game, so if he can't go, the team will feel confident turning to the rookie to handle a heavy workload in Week 12.

In 10 games this season, Fournette has 462 rushing yards and three touchdowns on 135 attempts.
