Bears RB Roschon Johnson a Healthy Scratch in Week 1
In the Chicago Bears' season opener against the Tennessee Titans, rookie running back Roschon Johnson was a healthy scratch, leaving D'Andre Swift, Khalil Herbert, and Travis Homer to handle the backfield duties. With new offensive coordinator Shane Waldron at the helm, the distribution of touches among the remaining running backs will be closely monitored, although Swift stands out as the only reliable fantasy option for Week 1. Johnson may have potential later in the season if injuries occur but is currently droppable in shallow leagues.

RB D'Onta Foreman leads Bears' backfield in win over Lions
RB D'Onta Foreman led the Bears' backfield in Sunday's win over the Lions, coming off the team's Week 13 bye. Foreman handled 11 of 15 RB carries (73.3%) and all 3 of the HB targets. He doubled both Roschon Johnson and Khalil Herbert in routes and played 55% of the offensive snaps. Foreman should be considered the leader heading into Week 15's visit to Cleveland. HC Matt Eberflus said ahead of the Detroit game that he'd be willing to ride the hot hand, so we'll see if the usage changes at all before projecting beyond Week 15. If Foreman does lead again, he could be a difference maker for a high-upside matchup with the Cardinals in Week 16. Johnson and Herbert are mere bench stashes for now.
