Newsbreakers
November 15, 2008
Aveion Cason will return kickoffs Sunday at Carolina, according to the Detroit News. Special teams coordinator Stan Kwan said, "We need all the extra yards that we can get. I think he's going to be able to give us a little bit more juice and possibly break some of those arm tackles."

Our View:Cason holds no value as a reserve running back, but is worth a look in deeper leagues that award points for return yardage. The Lions give up a ton of points, meaning Cason will have plenty of chances to rack up yards on returns.
November 11, 2008
The Lions signed Aveion Cason on Tuesday to bolster their offensive depth, according to MLive.com.

Our View:Cason will not see much time in the backfield for the Lions but he will be mostly used to help the Lions return game.
November 10, 2008
The Lions are expected to re-sign running back Aveion Cason, according to the Detroit News.

Our View:He won't be brought back to help in the running game, and will be used to shore up the return game on special teams, meaning he won't hold any fantasy value.
September 5, 2008
Aveion Cason was placed on the IR due to an ankle injury and it will cause him to miss the entire 2008 season.
August 30, 2008
Aveion Cason is finished for the 2008 season after the team placed him on IR Saturday, according to MLive.com. He was brought down by an ankle injury.

Our View:Brian Calhoun has also landed on the IR, meaning the Lions only have rookie Kevin Smith and Tatum Bell on the roster at running back.
