Jaguars RB T.J. Yeldon (ankle, foot) did not practice on Wednesday. This is the 4th straight Wednesday he's been limited or held out, and he's yet to miss a game. Yeldon should be available for this weekend's tilt with the Texans, but we'll continue to keep an eye on him.

Jaguars RB Leonard Fournette (hamstring) won't practice on Wednesday. HC Doug Marrone said last week that Fournette had "a chance" to return for Sunday's game against the Texans -- but doing nothing on Wednesday has that looking unlikely. T.J. Yeldon figures to get another game as Jacksonville's lead back.

Jaguars HC Doug Marrone confirmed that RB Leonard Fournette (hamstring) won't play against the Cowboys this weekend. It's the 2nd week in a row that Fournette has been ruled out on Wednesday, which is usually a sign that he's nowhere close to playing. T.J. Yeldon will again serve as Jacksonville's feature back this Sunday.

Jaguars RB Leonard Fournette (hamstring) won't play against the Cowboys this weekend, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. This is more confirmation than new information. Fournette missed 2 games with the hammy injury the first time around and could be sidelined longer this time. It's possible the Jags hold him out through the Week 9 bye. With RB Corey Grant (Lisfranc) on IR, T.J. Yeldon will see feature-back usage in Week 6.

Jaguars RB Corey Grant suffered a Lisfranc injury that will "likely" end his season, ESPN's Adam Schefter reports. Grant was playing a change-of-pace role behind T.J. Yeldon with Leonard Fournette sidelined with his hamstring injury. Fournette is expected to miss at least another game, leaving only Brandon Wilds behind Yeldon. Yeldon should see feature-back usage against the Cowboys in Week 6.

Jaguars RB Corey Grant injured his left leg in the 2nd quarter of Sunday's game against the Chiefs. He put no pressure on the leg as he was helped off the field. We'll update Grant's status when we know more. His absence will mean more work for RB T.J. Yeldon.

UPDATE: Jacksonville announced Grant with a foot injury. He's officially questionable to return but was carted back to the locker room.

Jaguars HC Doug Marrone confirmed Wednesday that RB Leonard Fournette (hamstring) won't play against the Chiefs this weekend. Fournette is likely looking at another multi-game absence after re-injuring his hamstring this past Sunday. T.J. Yeldon will operate as Jacksonville's lead back in a plus matchup in Kansas City, with Corey Grant as the change-of-pace.

ESPN's Adam Schefter tweeted that Jaguars RB Leonard Fournette will likely miss "at least" 2 games with his hamstring injury. It's unclear if Schefter was reporting or taking an educated guess. Fournette missed 2 games with the bum hammy the first time around, and aggravations tend to cost guys even longer. Jags HC Doug Marrone said Monday that he's not yet sure how long Fournette will be sidelined. We'll continue to monitor the situation, but fantasy owners obviously need to prepare to again be without their stud RB. T.J. Yeldon will serve as Jacksonville's lead back for however long Fournette is out, with Corey Grant in a change-of-pace role.

Jaguars RB Leonard Fournette (hamstring) is inactive for today’s game against the Titans. That’ll again leave the backfield to T.J. Yeldon and Corey Grant. With Fournette out last week, Yeldon carried 10 times and caught 2 of 5 targets. Grant ran it 4 times and reeled in 6 of 7 targets.

Jaguars RB Leonard Fournette is not expected to play today against the Titans as Jacksonville prefers to "play it safe" with his injured hamstring, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. RB T.J. Yeldon (ankle) is expected to play through his own "questionable" tag. He put in limited practices Thursday and Friday after missing Wednesday. Yeldon will be a solid fantasy starter if Fournette is indeed inactive.

Jaguars RB Leonard Fournette (hamstring) has an "uphill battle" to play against the Titans today, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Fournette "will have to prove a lot pregame to get on the field," Rapoport adds. ESPN's Adam Schefter, meanwhile, reports that Fournette is "likely" to play. The conflicting reports mean Fournette is likely a game-time decision. We'll find out his official status by noon ET. If he's inactive, Jacksonville's backfield would again be down to T.J. Yeldon and Corey Grant.

Jaguars RB Leonard Fournette (hamstring) is officially inactive for today’s game against the Patriots. We’ll monitor his progress throughout next week as he aims to get back for Week 3. T.J. Yeldon will serve as Jacksonville’s lead back today and is a nice RB2 in fantasy lineups. Corey Grant figures to mix in for a handful of touches behind Yeldon.

The Jaguars are "not optimistic" about RB Leonard Fournette's (hamstring) availability for today's game against the Patriots, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Fournette is still listed as questionable and might be a game-time call. But the Jags promoted RB Brandon Wilds from the practice squad on Saturday, a sign they're not expecting to have Fournette. He should be on fantasy benches right now. T.J. Yeldon figures to serve as the lead back vs. New England, with Corey Grant mixing in behind him.

Roy Cummings of Florida Football Insiders doesn't expect Jaguars RB Leonard Fournette to play Sunday against the Patriots. Jacksonville promoted RB Brandon Wilds from the practice squad, which points to the expectation that Fournette won't play. T.J. Yeldon becomes a RB2 with Fournette down. He got workhorse usage after Fournette left in Week 1.

Jaguars RB Leonard Fournette (hamstring) is listed as questionable for this weekend’s game against the Patriots. He didn’t practice all week but did resume running on Thursday. HC Doug Marrone seemed “optimistic” about Fournette’s status on Friday, according to insider Hays Carlyon. We’ll look for updates on Fournette on Sunday morning. Jaguars-Patriots doesn’t kick off until 4:25 pm ET, so owners hoping to use him need to have a late-game insurance plan rostered. T.J. Yeldon will serve as Jacksonville's lead back if Fournette sits out.

Jaguars HC Doug Marrone said that the plan is to have RB Leonard Fournette test his injured hamstring on Friday. The Jags are wise to have him rest that hammy as long as possible. It means we won't get an update on Fournette until Friday afternoon, though. The situation could be complicated by the fact that Jaguars-Patriots doesn't kick off until 4:25 pm ET on Sunday. Fournette owners should be pursuing backup RB T.J. Yeldon this week as insurance.

Jaguars RB Leonard Fournette (hamstring) won't practice on Wednesday. It's not a good start to his week -- although not entirely surprising, either. We'll see if Fournette gets back on the field Thursday. His hamstring injury is reportedly minor, but consider him 50/50 for this weekend's game against the Patriots. T.J. Yeldon will serve as Jacksonville's lead back if Fournette can't play.

"It sounds like" Jaguars RB Leonard Fournette (hamstring) will be ready for Week 2 against the Patriots, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. The Jags reportedly considered putting Fournette back into yesterday's game against the Giants before opting to hold him out. So this sounds like a minor injury, although hamstrings are always tricky. We'll watch his practice participation all week. T.J. Yeldon would serve as Jacksonville's lead back if Fournette can't play Sunday.

Jaguars HC Doug Marrone said after Sunday's win that he's "pretty optimistic" about RB Leonard Fournette's hamstring injury. The training staff told him that the strain is in a “good part” of Fournette's right leg. We'll keep an eye on his status this coming week, but hammies tend to be tricky to return from. RB T.J. Yeldon obviously needs to be added in all leagues. He operated as Jacksonville's feature back after Fournette's injury, tallying 69 total yards and a score.

Jaguars RB T.J. Yeldon (illness) is inactive for today's playoff game against the Bills. Yeldon wouldn't have been much of a fantasy option anyway, but he accounted for 12 targets, 8 catches and 9 carries over his past 2 games with Leonard Fournette in the lineup. More available touches can only help Fournette in an already strong matchup.
