Trestan Ebner - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Chicago Bears Rookie Report Card: RB Trestan Ebner We break down the rookie season for Chicago Bears running back Trestan Ebner.

JANUARY 17, 2023 • 247SPORTS.COM

Limited usage in rookie season Ebner was targeted twice in the Bears' 29-13 loss to the Vikings in Week 18, and ended the season with 24 carries for 54 yards along with two receptions for 16 yards.

Impact Ebner saw most of his opportunities as a running back when David Montgomery missed time during Weeks 3 and 4, but he never played significant snaps in any other game the rest of the season. It's likely that he'll be counted on to continue his role as a kick returner next year, and if he shows progress as a running back, he could see enhanced opportunities in that capacity as well. He's under contract through 2025.

Posts no stats in loss Ebner failed to catch his long pass target in the Bears' 25-20 loss to the Eagles on Sunday.

Impact Ebner did recover a Chicago fumble, which helped his team, but likely didn't benefit many fantasy managers. With Khalil Herbert (hip) nearing a return, he'll likely play the majority of his snaps on special teams, giving him minimal fantasy value.

Takes on secondary role in loss Ebner rushed eight times for six yards in the Bears' 27-24 loss to the Falcons on Sunday.

Impact Although the Bears ran the ball 41 times, 35 of those carries went to David Montgomery and Justin Fields, leaving just a small number of touches for Ebner. It would appear that Ebner will see a limited number of touches while Khalil Herbert (hip) spends time on injured reserve. However, should there be any games that are decided early, Ebner could be a candidate to see significant work in those late-game situations.

Next man up sans Herbert Ebner could step up as the No. 2 running back after the Bears placed Khalil Herbert (hip) on injured reserve Tuesday, Patrick Finley of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

Impact When David Montgomery was sidelined for two games earlier in the season, Ebner operated behind Hebert and rushed 13 times for 43 yards while securing two of three targets for eight yards across Weeks 3 and 4. The rookie sixth-round pick could reclaim a similar-sized role now that Herbert is due to miss at least the Bears' next four games. Montgomery has recorded more than 15 rushing attempts just once this season, so there's certainly room for Ebner to carve out an offensive role moving forward.

Negative yardage Ebner rushed twice but lost five yards in the Bears' 49-29 loss to the Cowboys on Sunday.

Impact Ebener had his opportunities when the game was out of hand. When David Montgomery and Khalil Herbert are healthy, he sees very few snaps when the games are competitive. Unless his role changes, he doesn't see enough work to consistently help most fantasy teams.

Sees mop-up duty Ebner rushed three times for eight yards in the Bears 33-14 win over the Patriots on Monday.

Impact Earning his opportunities in the latter moments of a blowout victory, this was the first time Ebner has touched the ball on offense since Week 4, and he has 59 total yards on the season. Unless David Montgomery or Khalil Herbert miss time, Ebner may not see enough work to be a reliable fantasy option.

OCTOBER 25, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Handles eight touches Ebner rushed six times for 20 yards, and he caught two passes for eight yards in the Bears' 20-12 loss to the Giants on Sunday.

Impact Ebner was the clear backup to Khalil Herbert with David Montgomery (ankle) inactive. Aside from an 11-yard run, Ebner failed to generate chunks of yardage with his limited work. He should retain a similar role in the offense until Montgomery returns to action.

Steps into prominent role Ebner rushed seven times for 23 yards in the Bears' 23-20 win over the Texans on Sunday.

Impact Ebner saw second-string running back duties when David Montgomery left the game with an ankle injury. Despite profiling as a strong receiving back, with Justin Fields throwing just 17 passes, Ebner had one target. If Montgomery misses time, Ebner will likely resume the the No. 2 role, giving him increased fantasy value.

Injures ankle Thursday Ebner suffered an ankle injury during Thursday's preseason game in Seattle, Brad Biggs of the Chicago Tribune reports.

Impact It's unclear exactly how Ebner picked up the issue, but he was the second Bears running back on the field in the team's second exhibition behind Khalil Herbert with David Montgomery (undisclosed) sidelined. Prior to his departure in the second quarter, Ebner took nine carries for 29 yards.

Looking to cement role Ebner's sure to get plenty of reps in Thursday's preseason game against the Seahawks, Alyssa Barbieri of USA Today reports.

Impact After scoring a touchdown and turning seven touches into 43 yards in the preseason opener, Ebner will continue to make a push to secure the No. 3 running back role behind David Montgomery and Khalil Herbert. Ebner also showed playmaking ability on special teams, where he posted 53 return yards, and he could work his way into a regular role in that capacity as well.

Rookie RB Trestan Ebner Shines in NFL Debut, Adds New Weapon to Bears Offense Chicago Bears rookie running back Trestan Ebner had a solid NFL debut against Kansas City.

AUGUST 15, 2022 • 247SPORTS.COM

Shines with reserves Ebner rushed six times for 31 yards and caught his only target for a 12-yard touchdown in the Bears' 19-14 win over the Chiefs on Sunday.

Impact Ebner ran a pass route out of the backfield, resulting in a scoring pass from backup quarterback Trevor Siemian. In addition, Ebner was the only Chicago running back to average more than 3.7 yards per carry, though he had his production against the Kansas City backups. Regardless, it was a solid professional debut, as he tries to win the No. 3 running back role behind David Montgomery and Khalil Herbert.
