Buffalo Bills Free Agent Target: Leonard Fournette

Another player who could split the work with Devin Singletary is former Bucs’ running back Leonard Fournette. The former Top 10 pick is expected to test free agency and is one of the top players at his position available this offseason.

After an impressive performance in the playoffs during their Super Bowl run in 2020, Fournette followed it up this past season with 812 rushing yards, 69 receptions, 454 receiving yards, and 10 total touchdowns.

He is a bigger running back that can do it all that could complement Devin Singletary and Bleacher Report even named the Bills as the perfect landing spot for Fournette this offseason.

The biggest hurdle will likely be the contract as Fournette is expected to receive one of the top contracts in the position this offseason. It is hard to imagine the Buffalo Bills are prepared to offer that type of deal with other needs.
