LeGarrette Blount Remains Lions Starting Running Back For Week 3
6 years agoDetroit Lions running back LeGarrette Blount is listed as the starter heading into their Sunday night matchup with the Patriots. His production was not terrible in Week 2, gaining 38 yards on eight carries, but opposing defenses are always able to key the run with Blount being a non-factor as a receiver. He remains a very touchdown dependent player for fantasy purposes across any format. Running back Kerryon Johnson is the preferred running back to own for the Lions, and we expect him to take on a more significant role soon.
