The Facts: Fournette, who spent Monday visiting with the New England Patriots, is re-signing with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on a three-year, $21 million deal, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter on Tuesday. The deal includes $11 million guaranteed and could reach $24 million with incentives, sources told ESPN.
Diehards Line:
Fournette ranked sixth among all NFL running backs with 1,266 yards from scrimmage, averaging a career-best 4.5 yards per carry, when the Bucs placed him on injured reserve with a hamstring injury after Week 15. He missed the wild-card game and returned for the Bucs' divisional-round loss to the Los Angeles Rams. After signing his second one-year deal with the Bucs last offseason, Fournette, 27, rushed for 812 yards and scored 10 total touchdowns. He also caught 69 passes for 454 yards. With Tom Brady back at the helm of this offenes, Fournette's return is an ideal outcome for fantasy managers.
