NFL running back Leonard Fournette appears to have avoided injury after his car caught fire while he was driving on a freeway.
Fournette posted a video to Instagram on Tuesday where he showed his burned vehicle on the side of the highway. Fournette doesn’t speak in the video, which shows extensive damage to the SUV.
According to Tampa Fire Rescue, Fournette was traveling on NB I-275 in Tampa when his car caught fire. The exact cause of the fire is currently unknown.
Fournette has spent the past three seasons playing for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He started 25 of 43 regular season games in his three years with the Bucs and scored 17 rushing touchdowns.
Fournette, who was a first-round pick by Jacksonville in 2017, is currently a free agent after being released by the Bucs during the offseason in a salary cap move.
