Detroit Lions re-signing RB Zach Zenner to 1-year deal

The Detroit Lions are bringing back Zach Zenner for another year. The team announced on Tuesday afternoon that they have agreed to terms with the hella buff running back on a one-year deal.

Zenner had reportedly drawn some interest from the Minnesota Vikings, which could have made a good home for Zenner, seeing as he grew up in Eagan, Minnesota. Ultimately, Zenner chose to return to Detroit.

Zenner has been a favorite of Bob Quinn and Matt Patricia. They clearly favored him over Ameer Abdullah, choosing to bring Zenner back from injured reserve last season, while letting Abdullah hit waivers.
