It sounds like the Jacksonville Jaguars’ running back situation is on its way to growing more crowded.
The thinking remains, at least from 1010 AM’s Jaguars reporter Hays Carlyon, that running back Leonard Fournette will be back after the team’s Week 9 bye, setting up an issue in the backfield.
No, I don't think this means he's had a setback. I think he'll play at Indianapolis after the bye. This trade is the #Jaguars saying, "We will not be burned by a Fournette injury again." https://t.co/tOdY6rq6fn

The Jaguars clearly have concerns about Fournette’s durability, as evidenced by the trade they made Friday. Even if they’re planning to welcome him back within the month, there is quite clearly a fear that another injury issue may hit him sooner rather than later.
