Bush (ankle) was a non-participant in practice Wednesday, the Detroit Free Press reports. Meanwhile, on a weekly radio spot with 97.1 The Ticket, he said, "Ankle's good. It feels good. I'm preparing this week. You saw me walk in here, I look good. No limp...No, the ankle feels good. It's nothing severe. I'm going to prepare this week as if I'm playing." Even if he upholds his prediction for active status Sunday at Minnesota, Bush could be relegated to a lesser role than normal, especially with Joique Bell (concussion) and Theo Riddick (hamstring) fulfilling complete practices this week. As the week draws to a close, expect further clarification regarding the running back pecking order in Detroit.
