Leshoure rushed for 798 yards for the Lions in 2012 but played in only three games last season.
So far Leshoure has only seen time in two games this season, and the situation seems unlikely to change - unless, perhaps, he changes teams.
When the Detroit Lions have run for over 100 yards this season, they've won.
For a player not even selected in the draft, Detroit Lions running back Joique Bell sure is making an impression.
After carrying the load in the running game for the Detroit Lions last season, Mikel Leshoure would reportedly welcome a trade to a team that would have more use for him this season, according to ESPN.
Steven Miller performed well in the last preseason game, and he knew it.
He played for the Indianapolis Colts in 2011 and the Philadelphia Eagles in 2012, and now he is contesting Leshoure for the Lions' main backup spot.

The Minnesota Vikings have a chance to maintain at least a share of the NFC North lead with a victory against the Detroit Lions. The Lions are struggling and the Vikings enter with momentum from a victory over the San Francisco 49ers.
Running back Mikel Leshoure finally made his NFL debut and he rushed for 100 yards and scored a touchdown.
If hope had a name, it would be Mikel Leshoure.
"We look forward to getting him back as a key part of our offense," Schwartz said about Leshoure.
The Lions weren't going to fall into the trap so many teams do against the 49ers defense.
The Lions have to travel to San Francisco to play the 49ers on NBC's Sunday Night Football. It is a tough matchup, which leads to this notion: Should the Lions be going all out to try and win this game?
With Jahvid Best on the PUP list and Mikel Leshoure out for the first two games of the season due to suspension, the Lions are shorthanded on running backs heading into the regular season.
