Lions Bringing in Legarrette Blount For Visit
7 years agoThe Detroit Lions will be bringing in their fourth veteran running back on a visit this week, as former Eagles running back Legarrette Blount will visit with the Lions. New head coach Matt Patricia is known to be a big Blount fan, and the two worked together when Blount was on the Patriots. Blount followed up his 18-touchdown 2016 season with just two touchdowns last season. However, he would represent an upgrade to Detroit's struggling running game. With a poor offensive line and a pass-heavy offense, however, Blount's value would suffer in the Motor City.
