Roschon Johnson Expected To See His Role Gradually Increase

one year ago

The Chicago Bears are shaking up their offense after an 0-3 start. One of the repercussions is that wide receiver Chase Claypool is a healthy scratch for the Week 4 game against the Denver Broncos. Rookie running back Roschon Johnson has impressed through the first three weeks of his NFL career, and the expectation is that he will gradually see an enhanced role alongside Khalil Herbert. Johnson has 17 carries for 90 yards and a touchdown and has added 10 catches for 56 yards. If he continues to look good, he could push Herbert for starter's reps down the road, making him one to pick up in fantasy leagues if he remains on your league's waiver wire.
