If the Lions just use him as a regular RB, and stop trying to protect him as if he's some franchise asset, I could see Reggie putting together a few pretty good seasons.

 

No way. He already missed last week because he was hurt. He can't take the pounding that kind of use brings. He's got a really good backfield mate in Bell. They've both had really good seasons so far, with Bell taking the big pounding in short yardage situations.

For the love of god Hester, just take the knee / 20 yards.

No I prefer he run it out and most krs will do the same.

But who cares? He's just another back now. I'd just use him for whatever is left in the tank. Between the tackle runs, outside throws -- whatever.

 

Just use him up. Get what you can.

 

RBs are all like this. You just get what you can during the limited time that they can provide a boost.

You split carries to get maximum productivity. Most teams do this.

what is the penalty?

 

I don't really know. Fox did a pretty bad job explaining what is happening.

 

Something on the Lions for 5 yards.
