The Tampa Bay Buccaneers plan to release Leonard Fournette.

According to a source, the move will happen before the start of the new league year March 15.

Fournette told the Tampa Bay Times that he asked for his release and that there  is "no bad blood" between him and the franchise.

The running back signed a three-year deal worth $21 million and up to $24 million with incentives last offseason.
