The Detroit Lions season essentially ended after Sunday’s loss to the Cincinnati Bengals. Although it’s hard to think positively right now if you’re a Lions fan, there is a silver lining I want to point out. That silver lining is rookie running back Tion Green.
Green, who was the final player selected to make the 53-man roster after the preseason didn’t even see the field until the Lions Week 13 game against the Baltimore Ravens. In his debut, the former Cincinnati Bearcat had 11 carries for 51 yards and his first NFL touchdown.
Fast forward to Sunday’s game in Cincinnati.
