Roschon Johnson Has Unclear Role In Week 15

Chicago Bears running back Roschon Johnson saw just one touch in Week 14 for six yards, marking the fewest opportunities he's had in a game this season. The rookie running back appeared to earn a larger role in the absence of D'Onta Foreman in Week 12, accumulating 15 touches for 75 total yards. However, with […]

Chicago Bears running back Khalil Herbert played only 17% of the snaps in Week 14, marking a season-low.

D'Onta Foreman, the lead back during Herbert's […]

Brian Robinson Jr. Ruled Out Against Rams

Washington Commanders running back Brian Robinson Jr. (hamstring) has been ruled out for Week 15 against the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday after missing practice all week.
