Bears to ride 'hot hand' at RB

NBC Sports Chicago

Oct 19, 2022 · 8:13 AM EDT

“We're going to go with the hot hand,” said HC Matt Eberflus when asked about the team’s running back rotation moving forward. “Who's ever hot right there, we're going to stay with him and go from there.”

Related players: David Montgomery, Khalil Herbert

Fantasy Impact:

A hot hand approach signifies a slight change, according to the story. Previously the Bears had deployed a steady rotation between David Montgomery and Khalil Herbert. The Bears would give Montgomery two or three series in a row, then use Herbert for one series to give Montgomery a breather. After six games, however, it’s Herbert’s 6.4 YPC average that’s outpaced Montgomery’s 4.0 rate, the story added. The story also said Monty is a better pass blocker and could still be a bell cow, but it seems like if Herbert gets into a groove, he'll likely get more opportunities.

Bears RB David Montgomery returns to practice

Bears’ RB David Montgomery was upgraded today to limited practice after not practicing Wednesday due to his ankle injury.

Related Players: Khalil Herbert

Fantasy Impact:

It's certainly not time to cut ties with Khalil Herbert quite yet, as Montgomery isn't a full-go for Sunday. Herbert has been incredibly efficient when given opportunities, averaging 6.1 yards per carry and 7.4 yards per reception when on the field. It's not farfetched to assume that Herbert has earned a role in the offense even if/when Montgomery returns to the lineup.

Bears Wednesday injury report
DNP: David Montgomery (ankle - no knee listed this week), Jaylon Johnson (quad), Dane Cruikshank (hamstring), Jaylon Jones (illness)

Related players: Khalil Herbert

Fantasy Impact:

Monty's biggest injury is his ankle at this point and he's not off to a great start this week with a DNP. Herbert would again get a bulk of the workload and be a possible RB1 if Monty can't go in Week 5.

Bears RB David Montgomery officially ruled out for Week 4

The Bears have ruled out RB David Montgomery for Sunday’s game at the Giants.

Related Players: Khalil Herbert

Fantasy Impact:

Khalil Herbert has proved that he can handle the load with Montgomery sidelined, including his 169 scrimmage yards he accrued in Week 3. Herbert can safely be played as a fringe RB1 option against the Giants.
