SUMMARY
Running Back Rank: #24   
Overall: #42


Bush had an injury-plagued season last year, missing six games. He has missed 10 games the last two seasons because of injury. At this stage, Bush is a much bigger threat as a receiver than runner. He has at least 50 receptions in every season as a pro. But his career high in rushing is 581 yards. Expect him to play a similar role with the Saints this season, getting some carries but a ton of work in the passing game. Bush is an explosive back with lightning quick moves and speed. He is as tough to bring down in the open field as any player in the league.
FANTASY OUTLOOK
An elite back in PPR leagues, but an ordinary option in any other format. You need to know your rules when picking Bush. He'll get you 70-plus receptions and around 1,000 total yards. If you are in a PPR league, Bush isn't a bad late first-round pick. In any other format, he is more of a fourth or fifth round pick.
CBSSports.com reports New Orleans Saints RB Reggie Bush had a season-low six touches (three carries, three receptions) in Week 7. However, Bush does not feel as if he is being phased out of the offense.
Fantasy Impact: Bush has been a big disappointment for fantasy teams. We don't see a big turnaround any time soon, either.

Updating a previous report, Brian Allee-Walsh, of the New Orleans Times-Picayune, reports New Orleans Saints RBs Reggie Bush, Pierre Thomas and Lynell Hamilton saw time with the first-team offense during practice Wednesday, Sept. 24. Hamilton said the coaches told him to be ready to play in Week 3.
Fantasy Impact: We think Bush is the only safe play out of this group. You just don't know how much the other two are going to play.

New Orleans Saints RB Mike Bell should split carries with RB Pierre Thomas (knee) in Week 2 if Thomas is able to play in the game. RB Reggie Bush would receive other touches in the passing game as well as in special teams.

CBS Sports reports New Orleans Saints RB Pierre Thomas (knee) is uncertain to return for the team's Week 2 game. When Thomas does return, he will splits snaps with RB Mike Bell, according to head coach Sean Payton. Payton also said there's a clear plan for how they'll utilize RB Reggie Bush, who is used in a more exotic fashion than Bell or Thomas.
Fantasy Impact: Bell is the guy gaining most value while the other backs are losing steam because they will be losing touches to the emerging Bell.

New Orleans Saints RB Mike Bell and RB Reggie Bush will split carries in the team's Week 1 game because of the injury to RB Pierre Thomas (knee).
Fantasy Impact: Both backs have decent value as No. 2 or 3 backs for fantasy teams in this role, facing a bad Lions defense.

New Orleans Saints RB Mike Bell should split carries with RB Reggie Bush during the team's Week 1 game since RB Pierre Thomas (knee) likely will not play. Bush would also receive touches in the passing game and special teams.
Fantasy Impact: Both backs have some value in this role. Bell is worth a flex play while Bush could be a decent No. 2 back.
