Jaguars cut ties with Fournette after 3 seasons

NFL

The Jacksonville Jaguars have waived running back Leonard Fournette, the team announced Monday.

The move end a tumultuous three-year run in which Fournette rushed for 2,631 yards and 17 touchdowns.

But the Jaguars didn’t pick up his fifth-year option during the offseason and actively shopped him without receiving any serious trade offers.

It’s the Jaguars’ second major move in the past two days, as sources told ESPN’s Adam Schefter on Sunday that Jacksonville had agreed to trade franchise defensive end Yannick Ngakoue to the Minnesota Vikings for a pair of draft picks.

Information from ESPN’s Michael DiRocco was used in this report.
