TAMPA, Fla. -- The Tampa Bay Buccaneers appear to have once again landed a marquee free agent this offseason.

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport and ESPN's Adam Schefter report former Jacksonville Jaguars running back Leonard Fournette is planning to sign with the Bucs on Wednesday night.

Fournette was a first-round (fourth overall pick) pick in the 2017 NFL Draft out of LSU and finished two seasons with more than 1,000 rushing yards.

The former LSU Tiger joins a running back room that already features Ronald Jones II and LeSean McCoy.
