D'Onta Foreman is a fantasy football waiver wire pickup option for running backs. Target him as a free agent add off waivers for Week 7 of the 2023 NFL season.
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 56% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: D’Onta Foreman had been relegated to healthy scratch status from Weeks 2-5. However, the combination of Khalil Herbert’s ankle issue and the concussion that Roschon Johnson sustained in Week 5 fueled Foreman’s temporary rise atop the Bears’ depth chart during Chicago’s Week 6 matchup with Minnesota.
The sixth-year back led Chicago’s backfield with 40 snaps, while Darrynton Evans accumulated 24. Foreman also carried 15 times, while assembling 65 yards on the ground.
Herbert will be sidelined for at least three additional games, while Johnson remains in concussion protocol as we enter planning for Week 7. It will be critical to follow updates surrounding the status of both backs.
However, anyone with Foreman contained on their rosters should have an opportunity to infuse him into their lineups when the Bears host Las Vegas on Sunday. Even if Johnson resurfaces for that matchup, Foreman could still be utilized as an RB3/flex. Particularly if you have been confronted by the challenges of a six-team bye week.
