News and Notes
Nov 17 RB Kevin Smith fumbled on the first offensive snap of the second half Sunday, and the Vikings cashed in with a quick touchdown to take a 17-3 lead. Smith also fumbled in the third quarter of the Lions' last game against the Vikings, Sept. 20, also a 27-10 loss. He had 55 yards on 12 carries this time. Yahoo! Sports

Nov 16 Smith carried 12 times for 55 yards and caught three passes for 10 yards Sunday against Minnesota. He also lost a fumble.

Recommendation: Maurice Morris received six carries for the Lions, a bit of a concerning trend for Smith owners. The second-year pro has been very disappointing this season, and now he's regularily ceding carries to Morris. Smith's value heading into the second half of the season is dropping quickly.

Nov 16 Smith had 12 carries for 55 yards Sunday in the Lions' 27-10 loss to the Vikings.

Advice: Smith has gone five straight games without a rushing TD and fantasy owners may not want to use the Lions RB anymore.
