Jacksonville Jaguars running back Leonard Fournette has already been ruled out of Sunday's game against the Houston Texans with a quad injury, but it's only expected to be a one-week absence.

The rookie runner is expected back for a meeting with the San Francisco 49ers in Week 16, NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports.

Chris Ivory is expected to draw the start against the Texans in Fournette's absence.

The Jaguars enter Week 15 still in contention for the second seed in the AFC playoffs.
