It’s no secret the Detroit Lions haven’t had the best luck with running back position since Barry Sanders retired in 1999.
It feels like over the last decade that the position has almost had a curse on it.
Just think about it.
The Lions drafted Jahvid Best in the first round of the 2010 draft to spark a new-look offense with Matthew Stafford and Calvin Johnson.
Unfortunately for the Lions and Best his career was cut short by a series of brain injuries.
