Lions coach Jim Schwartz denied that RB Reggie Bush was benched because of the fumble, after which the Giants scored a touchdown, but rookie Theo Riddick receiving a handoff in the fourth quarter at the New York 2 was enough evidence. Riddick scored his first career touchdown on the play and had two carries for 8 yards in the game.
Fantasy Impact:
Bush finished with 12 carries for 34 yards and two catches for 10 yards while Joique Bell got a bulk of the work for the game finishing with 20 carries. It was Bush's fourth fumble of the season.
