Ronald Jones II Doubtful For Week 16
4 years agoTampa Bay Buccaneers running back Ronald Jones II (finger) remains on the Reserve/COVID-19 list, and head coach Bruce Arians said that Jones is doubtful for Week 16 against the Lions on Saturday. Jones also had surgery to put a pin in his broken finger last week, so he could be out in Week 17 as well. Fantasy managers shouldn't expect any contributions from Jones for the rest of the 2020 campaign. Leonard Fournette went from being a healthy scratch to the team's lead back in a span of a week with Jones injuring his finger and being put on the COVID-19 list. He had 14 carries for 49 yards and two touchdowns and also caught three passes for 16 yards in the comeback win over the Falcons. Fournette will be a strong RB2 play this Saturday against a Lions team that has allowed the most fantasy points per game to RBs. LeSean McCoy will serve as the change-of-pace back.
