The Detroit Lions are hoping to rebound from their first loss of the year, while the Washington Redskins are still looking for their first win of the 2013 NFL season. One player who could drastically affect Sunday’s matchup between the two squads is the dynamic, yet oft-injured Reggie Bush. The talented running back has shown he’s still as spry as ever, and his game-breaking ability can be the difference in Sunday’s game, as there’s no one of the enigmatic Redskins defense capable of keeping up with him, but that;s assuming he;’s able to play:

Reggie Bush is officially questionable to play Sunday vs. Washington. Nick Fairley is, too. My guess is both play.

If Bush does play, expect to see him have a big day against a defense that made James Starks of all people look like a Pro Bowl back. If he doesn’t that could be the break the Redskins need to get their first win of 2013.

John Clayton also just reported on ESPN’s NFL Live that he expects Bush to play.
