The Jacksonville Jaguars got some good news as star running back James Robinson was declared healthy enough to play. All his fantasy football managers can breathe a sigh of relief as he'll be active for their Week 11 matchup against the San Francisco 49ers.
According to ESPN insider Adam Schefter, Robinson overcame his “questionable” tag initially due to a couple of nagging leg injuries.
Jaguars’ RB James Robinson, listed as questionable for Sunday’s game against San Francisco due to knee and heel injuries, is expected to play, per source.

The fact that he's ready and able to take the field for the Jaguars is a terrific sign given that head coach Urban Meyer stressed that they're taking it easy with Robinson.
“James is day-to-day, but he’s going today,” the Jaguars coach said at his Friday press conference. “We’re just being real cautious with him.”
James Robinson has had a solid sophomore season thus far, tallying 539 rushing yards through eight games played. Although he's averaging less rushing yards per game from his rookie season, dropping from 76.4 to 67.4, he's been racking up touchdowns at a much higher rate. His six TDs on the ground are just one off from his total from last season in nearly double the amount of games played.
Jaguars fans and fantasy football owners alike sure hope he can add to this totals against the Niners.
