KHALIL HERBERT NEWS

Why It Promises to Be a Long Hot Summer in Bears Backfield Analysis: Of all the positions with possible battles, running back looks like the most heated one as Khalil Herbert's past shows he can play...

Facing competition from Swift Herbert is part of a backfield that's set to add D'Andre Swift on a three-year, $24 million contract, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.

Impact Herbert has outperformed his draft slot since the Bears took him in the sixth round in 2021, averaging 4.9 yards on 364 carries. He's typically worked in timeshares and has just 43 receptions in 42 games, and it's not exactly surprising to see the cap-flush Bears brining in a more versatile running back. This isn't the worst outcome for Herbert's value given that the Bears were previously rumored to have interest in Saquon Barkley -- who is joining the Eagles -- but it does leave Herbert with a lot of snap/touch competition for the final year of his rookie contract, competing against Swift and 2023 fourth-round pick Roschon Johnson.

Khalil Herbert Limited at Bears Practice with Back Injury The Bears could be expected to rely heavily upon their running game this week but RB Khalil Herbert has a back injury.

JANUARY 4, 2024 • NEWSOBSERVER.COM

Dealing with back issue Herbert was limited at Thursday's practice due to a back injury.

Impact Herbert is making a midweek appearance on the Bears' Week 18 injury report after having no limitations whatsoever to kick off the week Wednesday. It's unclear if his availability for Sunday's game at Green Bay is in danger, but how he fares at Friday's session could be telling for his status. Herbert is coming off back-to-back 100-yard, one-touchdown efforts on the ground, so Chicago could be missing a big part of its offense if he's inhibited or even sidelined this weekend. Roschon Johnson and D'Onta Foreman would be next up in the team's backfield.

In line for activation Coach Matt Eberflus said the Bears are expected to activate Herbert (ankle/shin) from injured reserve Saturday ahead of Sunday's contest at Detroit, Kevin Fishbain of The Athletic...

Impact After Chicago designated Herbert for return from IR last Monday, he was listed as a full participant on all three injury reports, but the team opted not to activate him for last Thursday's game against the Panthers. He kicked off this week with a limited session Wednesday but capped it with back-to-back full practices, leading to no designation for Week 11 action. Assuming he gets back on the active roster Saturday, Herbert may split the backfield with D'Onta Foreman (ankle) off the bat, though the latter is questionable for Sunday after have a cap on his reps all week.

Bears Injury Report: Full Practice for Khalil Herbert Bears running back Khalil Herbert looks on track for a return from IR and an ankle injury after a full Thursday practice.

NOVEMBER 16, 2023 • SUNHERALD.COM

Tending to shin injury in Week 11 Herbert, who remains on injured reserve, was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice due to ankle and shin injuries.

Impact Herbert has missed the Bears' last five games while recovering from a right high-ankle sprain, but he was listed as a full participant on all three of the Bears' practice reports last week upon being designated for return from IR. Since the Bears played on Thursday night in last week's win over Carolina, Herbert was expected to be ready to play this Sunday in Detroit with a more typical week of prep time, but the fact that he's now dealing with a shin injury may affect those plans. The Bears haven't revealed whether the shin issue was something he sustained during Wednesday's practice, or if he emerged with the injury following Week 10 prep. Either way, Herbert will likely need to resume practicing in full capacity by Friday in order for the Bears to feel confident about adding him back to the 53-man roster this week.

Cleared to practice The Bears designated Herbert (ankle) for return from injured reserve Monday.

Impact The transaction opens a 21-day window in which the Bears can evaluate Herbert in practice. Given that the Bears are likely to hold walk-through sessions or light practices this week leading up to Thursday's game against the Panthers, Herbert may face an uphill battle to be activated from IR in advance of that contest. Even if Herbert is activated for Week 10 or at a later date, he may not be guaranteed to reclaim the lead role out of the backfield that belonged to him prior to his placement on IR in mid-October. D'Onta Foreman has served as the lead back for Chicago over the past four weeks and is averaging 15 carries for 67.8 yards per game while scoring three touchdowns during that span.
