The Jacksonville Jaguars' offensive line got a swanky thank-you present from Leonard Fournette for helping the rookie running back eclipse the 1,000-yard mark this season.

Fournette bought Rolex watches engraved with each player's number and initials for the entire offensive line, including reserves Tyler Shatley and Josh Wells. They're expected to arrive Friday.

"I couldn't do it myself," Fournette told ESPN's Michael DiRocco. "I can't block 11 guys on my own. That's the O-line, and wide receivers, too. They played a big part of contributing to me getting 1,000 yards."

Fournette rushed for 1,040 yards and nine touchdowns in 13 games.
