This one right here could very well wind up being the Randy Savage vs. Ricky Steamboat match-up of the entire camp. Anybody who has seen that match knows it’s a masterpiece.
On one side you’ve got fan favorite George Winn. On the other is the new kid in town, Zach Zenner. The most intriguing part of this story is that both guys are starting their camp just trying to prove that the Lions should take a 4th running back on to the 53 man roster. From there it’s win or go home to the practice squad. That means these guys should be working harder than any other men on the field.
In the end I like George Winn a lot, but I think Zach Zenner will be the better option here for the Lions. He’s a hard runner like Winn. But Zenner brings more speed and finesse to the game.
