Detroit Lions offensive coordinator Joe Lombardi was recently asked about his run game at a Town Hall Meeting for season ticket holders.

It was a legitimate question considering that was one of the biggest issues on that side of the ball a season ago. The Lions ranked 28th in rushing last season and decided to cut ties with Reggie Bush this offseason, just two years into a four-year deal he signed in 2013.

“Joique we love. He’s a tough guy. Runs hard. Just keeping him healthy will be key.

“I’m very excited for Theo (Riddick) and have been since I first got here. I think we’re going to see great things from him.”
