RB Kevin Smith suffered a shoulder injury

Lions RB Kevin Smith suffered a shoulder injury and Schwartz said he could have returned if necessary, but backup Maurice Morris was doing a solid job.

Smith averaged 2.8 yards per carry with his 45 yards on 16 carries while Morris averaged 4.5 yards with 63 yards on 14 attempts. Rookie Aaron Brown also had two carries for 15 yards.

"Aaron's got speed and we have to try to get the ball in his hands. He made a couple of plays but then he had a couple that he needed to capitalize on and he didn't,'' Schwartz said.
