Kerryon Johnson Held In Check Against Vikings
6 years agoDetroit Lions running back Kerryon Johnson took 12 carries for 37 yards in the loss to Minnesota on Sunday. Johnson also caught three of five targets for just seven yards. Detroit was playing catch up for another week with the Lions' offensive line having a rough day, allowing Matthew Stafford to be sacked 10 times. Theo Riddick also returned from a two-game absence, which clearly took away from the rookie's work in the passing game. Count this as a low point for Johnson and Detroit, even in a tough matchup. However, things aren't looking up next week as Detroit travels to take on the stout Bears defense.
