TAMPA, Fla. - The Detroit Lions want a longer look at rookie running back Tion Green, and it will come at Ameer Abdullah's expense.
The Lions are holding Abdullah out for the second straight game today against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, though his benching this week is not injury related.
Abdullah missed last week's loss to the Baltimore Ravens because of a neck injury.
