Can Ameer Abdullah grab the staring running back job?
Jason Bray: All the reports from Lions camp say the Abdullah is dazzling and the first game seemed to support that. He’s making would be tacklers miss and again has been one of the standouts in camp.
With that said it’s still preseason.
Abdullah did a good job hanging on to the football last year at Nebraska which is good because if Bell sees 200 carries he will lead the league in fumbles. Although Ameer doesn’t have a sexy 40 time his three-cone drill time was the best of any running back.
He’s shifty, quick and probably starts by week four.
Downtown: Abdullah will become the starter because of injuries to Joique Bell whose taken a beating and his time is winding down.
