Bills Considering Adding Leonard Fournette To Active Roster?

12 months ago

Buffalo Bills head coach Sean McDermott said that running back Leonard Fournette has been a nice addition to the team and continues to learn the offense. McDermott said that if not this week against the New York Jets, then the weeks ahead will be a "big-time consideration" for Fournette to be called up from the practice squad to the 53-man active roster. It sounds as though Buffalo will forge forward in Week 11 with James Cook and Latavius Murray in their backfield, but Lenny could be coming to the backfield rotation sooner than later with Damien Harris (neck) still on Injured Reserve and potentially out for the rest of the year. It remains to be seen how much of a role the 28-year-old Fournette will have with the Bills, but he's likely to be used mostly in short-yardage and goal-line situations.
