Jacksonville Jaguars running back Rashad Jennings has been officially ruled out for the team's Week 16 game against the New England Patriots.
Rashad Jennings ruled out for Sunday’s game, killing fantasy value
Rashad Jennings will miss his fourth straight game this week against the New England Patriots.
US PRESSWIRE
Jennings has been dealing with a concussion. He hasn't played since Week 13 against the Buffalo Bills and won't be able to take the field against the Patriots. Montell Owens will once again get the start in his place.
Fantasy Impact: Montell Owens has been a decent fantasy option in place of the injured Rashad Jennings and Maurice Jones-Drew. The Dolphins shut him down, but inconsistency is to be expected from a running back playing in such a low-scoring offense.
Owens has a tough matchup against the New England Patriots, so he’s only worth a look in deeper leagues this week.
