JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — The Florida Highway Patrol confirmed that Jaguars running back Leonard Fournette was involved in a three-car crash Tuesday on I-295 in Jacksonville.
Sgt. Dylan Bryan said Fournette was inside a vehicle involved in the collision. Fournette was able to drive home, a Jaguars spokesman said.
There were no injuries and Fournette was not at fault, officials said.

The crash occurred around 11:40 a.m. on I-295 southbound near Heckscher Drive and the Dames Point Bridge, according to FHP.
Leonard Fournette involved in a minor crash this morning. Not at fault and it sounds more like a fender bender. #Jaguars say Fournette was rear ended. @ActionNewsJax
