Abdullah was limited in Wednesday's practice due to an ankle injury, Michael Rothstein of ESPN.com reports.
Abdullah played his first offensive snaps of the season during Detroit's win over the Dolphins in Week 7, gaining a yard on his lone carry and hauling in a 12-yard reception. If Theo Riddick (knee) is again sidelined Week 8 against the Seahawks, Abdullah would likely have a small role on offense behind rookie Kerryon Johnson and veteran LeGarrette Bount. In order for that to materialize, however, Abdullah must prove that his own injury isn't a concern.
