Recent Game Summaries

2014 Week 18 vs DAL (8 / 37 / 1 rush, 5 / 3 / 10 / 0 rec)

Bush's role against the Cowboys was consistent with his play all season. He had occasional flashes when in space, like a nine-yard jaunt on a toss play, following by a jump cut beating a defender for a red zone touchdown carry in the first quarter. However, a majority of Bush's touches were sniffed out by Dallas' defense for little or no gain. Theo Riddick saw most of the snaps in the pass-catching role in Detroit's hurry-up offense at the end of each half and performed well. With a $5-6 million dollar cap hit each of the next two seasons, the soon-to-be 30-year-old running back may have played his last game in Detroit with this playoff loss.

Lions | Reggie Bush released (Wed Feb 25, 05:22 PM) - Detroit Lions RB Reggie Bush has been cut Wednesday, Feb. 25.

Our View: The rich free agent market for running backs just got another good player in the mix. Bush battled through 11 games as injuries held him back in 2014. The Lions will now save $1.7 million with this move. Bush is not what he once was, but there should be more than a few teams interested in the veteran change-of-pace back.

Lions | Reggie Bush's status is up in the air (Thu Feb 19, 04:28 PM) - Detroit Lions RB Reggie Bush may be let go this offseason, according to general manager Martin Mayhew, but nothing is certain as the situation stands. 'No, we haven't made a determination at this point,' Mayhew said. 'Anybody on our roster, there's a lot of futures up in the air.' Bush has two years left on his current contract and is due $3.25 in base pay this season.

Our View: There is a lot of money to be paid on on defense if the Lions want to keep most of their defensive line together. Ndamukong Suh alone could command quite a bit of money. The question is, do the Lions think that Joique Bell and Theo Riddick can carry the load? Bush himself hasn't been as big an impact player in the last season and he might not recover the form that got him his last contract. Ultimately, it might not be a big step down from Bush to Riddick/Bell.
