Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Ronald Jones II (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday’s game against the Carolina Panthers.
Fantasy Impact: Jones could not practice this week and was ultimately ruled out for Sunday’s game against the Panthers. The 24-year-old initially hurt his ankle in the Week 17 win over the Jets. He had rushed for 91 yards on 30 attempts while catching three passes for 17 yards in the last two games filling in for starter Leonard Fournette (hamstring), who is on injured reserve with an injured hamstring. Le’Veon Bell and Ke’Shawn Vaughn will lead Tampa Bay’s backfield while Jones is out. Vaughn is currently 38th among all running backs in the latest FantasyPros expert consensus rankings, but fantasy managers should expect that number to rise with the latest news.
