RB Fournette adding balance to Buccaneers' potent offense | |
TAMPA, Fla. (AP) Tampa Bay's injury-riddled defense has yet to hit its stride this season. However, the Buccaneers continue to thrive with an offense that's become even more potent with the re-emergence of Leonard Fournette. The talented running back, in his second season with the defending Super Bowl champions after wearing out his welcome in Jacksonville, is making the most of an opportunity to re-establish himself as a featured back. The Bucs have made a conscious effort to get the fifth-year pro more involved in the passing attack the past three games, and Fournette has embraced the expanded role that's eased some of the burden on Tom Brady, who leads the NFL in passing.
