Lions RB Joique Bell (ankle) did not practice Wednesday. Bell may miss another week. Ameer Abdullah saw 15 touches in Week 4. Theo Riddick checked in with six, while Zach Zenner saw three. Expect Abdullah to lead the team in touches if Bell remains out.

Lions RB Joique Bell (ankle) missed practice again Friday. Bell is looking doubtful, but the Lions have an extra day since they play on Monday night. If he’s out, Ameer Abdullah will be a volume start in a bad matchup against the Seahawks. Theo Riddick would have some PPR appeal as well.

Lions RB Joique Bell (ankle) missed practice Thursday. Bell’s absence could lead to a larger workload for Ameer Abdullah. It’s a bad matchup against Seattle, but volume matters.

Atrocious run blocking has not helped, but Joique Bell doesn’t look to have the same power or burst out of the backfield.

He didn’t play all preseason and hasn’t gotten many opportunities, but with Ameer Abdullah and Theo Riddick more productive right now, Bell’s role could end up being diminished if he doesn’t find his old form soon.

He is still effective as a pass-catcher (a little better than his career yards per reception) but he has looked hesitant. That’s not good for a guy who is supposed to be Detroit’s best between-the-tackles rusher. In two games, he has 10 carries for 16 yards. But the Lions have not been in too many situations to use him at his best, where he's a yards-eater late.

Fantasy Impact:

Abdullah and Riddick are also standouts in the passing game, but there should be a need for Bell's between-the-tackles style of running. Hopefully for owners it's a case of just getting back up to speed.
