Reggie Bush misses practice again, throwing fantasy status into question

Bush is dealing with a calf injury and missed practice for the second straight day. We break down the fantasy implications.

Tim Fuller-USA TODAY Sports

Detroit Lions running back Reggie Bush was held out of practice on Thursday. It's the second straight day he has been unable to practice. He was limited to light individual drills.

Bush is dealing with a calf injury. He didn't appear to be hurt in last week's Thanksgiving win over the Green Bay Packers, but it's a bit concerning that he can't practice after more than a week of rest. His status is now up in the air for Sunday's game against the Philadelphia Eagles. Bush has been banged up this season but still played in 11 games piling up 854 rushing yards, 448 receiving yards on 45 catches, and five total touchdowns.

Fantasy impact: If you own Bush, hopefully you already have Joique Bell handy. Bush could be heading for a game time decision, and if active he has a dream matchup against the Eagles defense. Bell is still worth trotting out as an RB2/flex play even if Bush is able to play.
