The Facts: According to the Tim Twentyman of the team’s official website, HC Jim Schwartz believes Bush could wind up catching between 60-80 passes for the Lions next season.
Diehards Line:Lions running backs caught 97 passes last season with Joique Bell catching 52 passes for 485 yards. Bush has caught 70-plus passes twice before during his first two seasons in the league with New Orleans. As PFT's Curtis Crabtree notes, with Matthew Stafford at the helm, the Lions have been a pass-first team in recent seasons anyway. If Bush is able to stay healthy, it’s not out of the question to believe he’d be able to achieve those numbers again.
