Jacksonville Jaguars head coach Doug Marrone confirmed Wednesday that running back Leonard Fournette will likely return for Sunday's game against the San Francisco 49ers after missing Week 15 with a quad injury, according to Matt Barrows of The Sacremento Bee.
Fournette's injury was reportedly expected to sideline him for just one game.
The rookie has battled various injuries this season, but is still close to eclipsing the 1,000-yard rushing mark. With one eye on the playoffs, the Jaguars will likely limit his workload and continue to give more snaps to Chris Ivory and T.J. Yeldon.
