Detroit Lions running back Joique Bell has insisted that he will have to earn his spot as the club's starter for the 2015 season.
The Lions released Reggie Bush after just two seasons with the club, allowing Bell to take over the mantle as the NFC North's side's lead back.
However, the 27-year-old is adamant that he will have to beat out Theo Riddick and Ameer Abdullah to earn the position.
"I think that's something you have to talk to coach [Jim] Caldwell about," Bell told reporters.
"He knows the depth chart better than I do. I can't give out false [estimations] right now. We'll see when the season gets here. I don't plan out the roles. I go out to do what the team needs."
Bell rushed for 860 yards and seven touchdowns for the Lions in the 2015 season.
