Lions 2nd in league in five min drives and ten play drives. We don't just give ball back

That's because they dink and dunk. Lions 23rd in yards per play.

They are 25th in yards per play on defense at 5.8
 
In what can only be seen as a shocking twist of events.......Deandre Levy has NOT yet been cleared to play in this Sunday's game against the Saints.

Being interviewed while wrestling crocodiles in Madagascar......Levy said his body just "isn't ready for the dangers of an NFL football game" and the star LB doesn't want to risk further injury until he feels "100%".

Haha, quite possibly the post of the year.
 
Ameer Abdullah (foot, injured reserve) was still sporting a walking boot before his visit with Dr. Robert Anderson last week.
The visit reportedly showed Abdullah's foot is "structurally sound," but the boot puts a bit of a damper on his expected return.
The Lions still have not officially tabbed Abdullah as their return player, although it seems very likely with LB Jon Bostic dealing with complications in his own recovery from a foot issue.
Abdullah is still a better injury bet than Adrian Peterson, but it is far from a sure thing he will return value this fantasy season.
RotoWorld

Team also signed RB Mike James to the practice squad.
@davebirkett does that mean Ameer on IR the rest of the year?
Nothing to do with Ameer. It means they needed to clear a roster spot. Forsett hasn't played since the Washington game in mid-October.

Been trying to find any updates on this , but have had no luck . Anyone know anything ?
 
Absolutely nothing. I dont think him or Bostic are returning this year. Almost 4 weeks ago it was reported that Abdullahs foot was structurally sound, and that it was conceivable that he could return to practice and play within the next couple weeks. Nothing since then, November 25th or so

Running game looked decent with Washington and Zenner. Riddick's status is still up in the air and Zenner is in the league's concussion protocol. Wonder if we'll see more of Bell this week.
 
Wonder if Abdullah returns to practice this week? It was said his foot was structurally sound almost a month ago, and that it was expected that he could possibly return to practice in 3 weeks or so. Well the 3 weeks is up and we desperately need a spark in the running game.
 
Would be a huge boost having a better version of Riddick back in the lineup. Zero news since reports saying he was 3 weeks away from a possible return in mid November. Kinda frustrating, thought he'd be a full go by now. Hope we hear something about him, one way or another early this week. No reason to stay tight lipped about it anymore

If we keep on winning - taking a piss next week followed by stepping out onto the field, to practicing, to dressing etc he should be ready by March. Sweet.

Kinda my thoughts as well. Caldwell should have an injury report around then too. Good deal
 
Caldwell on opening day of training camp: Abdullah should return tomorrow

Reporter: He practiced today
 
Abdullah was available to speak for the first time in months, and while he did not go into great detail on his injury, he reassured folks that he would be ready and up to speed in 2017.
Abdullah said he expects to be full go by the start of spring ball.
Was he ever close to a return? Abdullah couldn?t?or wouldn?t?say.
Ameer Abdullah, when asked if he felt he could have played: "Don?t know. Don?t know. Don?t know. Can?t give you an honest answer on that."
