Bush out?

Reggie Bush didnt practice today. I would pick up Joique Bell just in case Bush is a surprise inactive.

Reggie Bush - RB - Lions
Reggie Bush (leg) told reporters Friday he missed practice as a precaution.

Per Lions beat writer Dave Birkett, Friday's leg injury is "not related to (Bush's) previous knee injury," and there is "no need to panic." It's fantastic news for Bush owners as Detroit gets set to host Dallas, but also a reminder of Bush's durability concerns, which remain ongoing and likely always will. Joique Bell needs to stay rostered in fantasy leagues of all sizes.

Good we played Shady McCoy last week, so we are prepared for someone who can do SOME of the same things. Hopefully we have the same result.

Sean Lee was on NFL AM commenting on this same point.

Thing is, the Eagles QB was completely inept. That won't be the case with Detroit. Stafford will be slinging the ball a lot and mixing in the run.

Agree. Stopping Stafford is priority one.

Controlling Bush will limit his options.

That said Detroit will be a formidable challenge

Yup, it's going to be a pretty exiting 50/50 game. Will be HUGE if we win that game.

True, but Bush isn't nearly as shifty and fast as Leseasn McCoy.

McCoy is the better player; but Bush is much faster than he is...fwiw.

Completely agree with that. They don't call him Shady for nothing.

Unfortunately, Bell can be deadly as well.

I'm not entirely sold on Bell. Bell is a very good compliment to Bush, but he hasn't scored a touchdown and hasn't run for more than 27 yards since Week 3 against the Commanders.

I think the Cowboys can lick Bush, I'd be glad to show them how.

What are you, eight?

Would be a confidence builder for us going forward , and put some of naysayers in their place.

Right now listed as probable

Lesean Mccoy is fast, not as fast as Reggie Bush though..just like Barry Sanders..all that jumping, cutting and spinning will leave you winded so you'll always end up getting caught from behind

purple.

 

[Sarge]

Joique Bell can step in and be a menace - he is very underrated. I'd rather face Bush at 75-80%.

EDIT: Bush is listed as probable.

 

[DuceizBak]

Bush recently just said "don't worry, he'll play"
not the exact words but you get it


Here it goes.
