Ameer AbdullahRB

Despite breaking NCAA single-game rushing yards record at Nebraska, Abdullah never clicked as an NFL offensive weapon. Fumbled 24 times at Nebraska and brought that issue to Detroit with five fumbles in rookie year. Combined with an untimely foot injury, this kept him out of the starting picture. Career longevity owed mostly to kick-return skills rather than offensive production. The source stresses the importance of grinding rookie tape to identify red flags like fumble issues.
