RB Bell sent packing but takes replacement's luggage

Funny, weird or sad -- you can decide.

Earlier this week, the Lions signed former Bengals running back Rudi Johnson who was taking the job and roster spot of Tatum Bell whose best days were with Denver.  While Johnson was hammering out the details of his new employment on Monday, his luggage -- a pair of duffel bags -- went missing from Detroit's practice facility. According to Johnson, surveillance video showed it was Bell who walked off with the bags. Johnson has gotten back the empty bags but contends a moderate amount of cash, his identification, credit cards and clothes are missing.

I think that PFT's comments got it best when they said the headline for the story should have been

"Tatum Bell Fumbled Rudi’s Bag"

Don't be so quick to finger Bell. Does anyone know where Mat Millan was when the bags were swiped? He's been stealing paychecks from the Lions for years.
