RB Signed

Eldra Buckley - RB - Lions

Lions signed RB Eldra Buckley, formerly of the Eagles.
Buckley tried out Thursday alongside Jalen Parmele, who apparently didn't make it through the workout. With Jahvid Best (concussion) out this week and Jerome Harrison (brain tumor) out for the season, Buckley will add depth behind Maurice Morris and Keiland Williams. The Lions are in trouble if Buckley ever has to take on a major ball-carrying role.

Honestly, I would expect more carries from Logan than I would this guy, but they said he has some special teams value so maybe that's where we'll see him most if at all.

I really expect Logan to be a little more involved too.

Looks like hes out there with special teams today.

Being about an hour outside of Philly I'm actually vaguely familiar with this cat. And by vaguely familiar I mean I vaguely remember his name being called during a preseason game. We're in trouble if he ever takes on a major ball carrying role is right...
