The Jacksonville Jaguars have ruled out cornerback A.J. Bouye for tomorrow’s season finale against the Indianapolis Colts and now running back Leonard Fournette has tweeted he won’t play due to coming down with the flu.
Fournette has been ruled “doubtful” but his latest tweet makes it sound all but certain he won’t play:
“Unfortunately I want be able to play tomorrow due to the flu I have, my brothers know I wish I can ball with them, hopefully I see some of them same faces on my team next year.”
