5 must-watch offensive players in Chicago Bears preseason opener
4. Roschon Johnson
This is going to be a big offseason for Roschon Johnson. He is like Bagent in that he is in a training camp competition entering his second NFL season. However, he is listed as the number three running back. The good news is that he also has an OR next to his name. He could very well be considered the number two running back.
The good news for Johnson is that while Herbert is the number two back, he also is much more known and is not tied down via team control. Johnson is entering year two, and did not get enough chances to show what he can bring in year one.
When Herbert got injured, Johnson happened to be injured as well. Herbert will get work, especially considering this is a new offense. However, the team does not need to see much of him in the preseason. This will be all about Johnson.
If he can play well he can easily push Herbert down. That is not certain yet.
