Ameer Abdullah rehabbed maniacally in an attempt to return late last season, but given the nature of his injury, the Detroit Lions' No. 1 running back never was a candidate to see the field.
Abdullah admitted in a recent interview with fellow former Nebraska standout Adam Carriker that he suffered a Lisfranc tear in a Week 2 loss to the Tennessee Titans last September.
“I ended up tearing my Lisfranc the second game of the season against the Tennessee Titans, separating my foot, so that was a bummer for me,” Abdullah said in a May interview on The Carriker Chronicles.
