WildTurkey Posted December 10, 2017 Share Posted December 10, 2017 with Abdullah apparently benched, is Tion Green gonna get the start and majority of carries for DET going forward? I watched his highlights vs BAL; looks like a hefty dude with some wheels. I recall Zach Zenner doing good things in starts late in the year last year (not sure why he wouldn't be playing again now, but I'm sure there's some reason).

stevegrab Posted December 10, 2017 Share Posted December 10, 2017 Abdullah is still recovering from an injury and while he could play the word is team would like to get a look at their other RBs including Tion. Not sure that's equal to a benching. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isleseeya Posted December 10, 2017 Share Posted December 10, 2017 Abdullah is benched and it is performance based. That’s the word from multiple outlets . That said I see more volume for Riddick and unless Tion can get in the end zone I think his performance will be average at best. Last week he had that one run for 33 yards. The rest was 10 carries for 18 yards in total Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolphin_Akie Posted December 10, 2017 Share Posted December 10, 2017 Started Tion today but Riddick has the early carries and TD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CowboysDiehard Posted December 10, 2017 Share Posted December 10, 2017 I picked him up but started Perine instead. Not going to matter, I'm getting dusted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gourdeau Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 At 12:59 eastern time i took Emannuel Sanders out of ky flex and put in Riddick, easily won me my matchup.. hoping they shut Abdullah down Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rajncajn Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 (edited) This thread cracks me up every time I see it, but for a totally unrelated reason. Years back I was a structural design group lead and all the leads were together going over project distribution to all of our workers. We were all writing the names on the white board along with the project number and I look over at one of the other leads list and saw the name Tion. I asked him "who the hell is "Tee-on?" He answers "That's Shawn." It takes a second or two for it to register then laughter erupted while he just sat there looking confused. Needless to say, the guy wasn't the brightest. Anyway, I picked up Tion and stashed him on my taxi squad. Any chance this guy actually gets some playing time?
