Rashad Jennings has been ruled out for Sunday's game between the Jacksonville Jaguars and the Houston Texans. Jennings sat out practice all week with a knee injury suffered during last week's season opener against the Minnesota Vikings. Montell Owens is expected to be the top backup behind Maurice Jones-Drew this week.

Fantasy Impact: Jennings likely would not have played a major role this week even if healthy, but the fact that he’s out only solidifies Jones-Drew as the Jaguars’ leading man in the backfield. Going forwards, expect MJD to hog touches out of Jacksonville’s backfield, relegating Jennings as a necessary handcuff to Jones-Drew owners and little more in fantasy circles.
