Detroit Lions running back Reggie Bush was limited in practice on Wednesday due to a knee injury. There were no reports of an injury immediately following Monday's win over the New York Giants and Bush is expected to play against the Carolina Panthers on Sunday.
Reggie Bush’s minor knee injury shouldn’t scare fantasy owners for Week 2
Reggie Bush was limited in practice on Wednesday. We break down the fantasy implications.

He's dealt with a slew of injuries to his knee, with his most recent issue coming in November 2013. Bush also needed microfracture knee surgery back in 2008, so this knee injury can't be dismissed. It's worth mentioning he had been spotted with an ice pack on his knee on Wednesday, so this isn't a Patriots-like formality of placing a guy on the injury report.
Fantasy impact: Fantasy owners knew they were rolling the dice with Bush and his laundry list of injuries. Still, there is no reason to think he won't be in the lineup against the Panthers. He should be in most PPR fantasy lineups while Joique Bell is a low-end flex against a stout run defense.
