Friday open thread: How do you feel about the Lions’ running back room?

On Thursday, the Detroit Lions made it official, cutting 2018 second-round pick Kerryon Johnson. The Auburn Tiger had trouble staying healthy and only totaled eight rushing touchdowns in Detroit. His release finalizes a disappointing tenure with the Lions.

With Johnson and (thankfully) Adrian Peterson gone, the position group will look a bit different in 2021. Jamaal Williams will take over the role of RB2, rookie Jermar Jefferson suddenly has a much better shot at making the roster, and either Jason Cabinda or Nick Bawden should earn the fullback job.

Today’s Question of the Day is:
