Tarik Cohen Compared To Tyreek Hill
7 years agoChicago Bears new head coach Matt Nagy, who was the playcaller for the final four games of the 2017 regular season with Kansas City, sees a lot of similarities between Tarik Cohen and Chiefs running back Tyreek Hill. "Well, No. 1, size-wise you see that and you say, 'OK, they're pretty similar, right?'" Nagy said at the NFL scouting combine. "And then you have the speed, the shiftiness, the moves, everything that they do. They're similar in the fact that you can move them around and do different things." Cohen certainly has versatility, as he became the first NFL running back since Gale Sayers in 1965 to score touchdowns via rushing, receiving, passing and punt return in a single season. He was second in receptions (53) and rushing yards (370) and led the Bears with 855 combined return yards. Cohen should see more of a role in 2018, and he could cut into the playing time of Jordan Howard.
