• Bears' Roschon Johnson: Sparse usage in finale

  01/06/2025 • By RotoWire

  Johnson rushed twice for three yards and brought in all five targets for 16 yards in the Bears' 24-22 win over the Packers on Sunday. Johnson was once again a clear second fiddle to lead back D'Andre Swift, who logged 20 carries. The second-year pro had a relatively uneventful season despite the trade of Khalil Herbert to the Bengals, with the exception of a solid red-zone role that helped him score six rushing touchdowns. Johnson tallied just 150 rushing yards on 55 carries alongside a 16-104 receiving line over 14 regular-season games, and he's likely to head into training camp next summer in a similar, clear No. 2 role.

• Bears' Roschon Johnson: Four carries in low-scoring loss

  12/27/2024 • By RotoWire

  Johnson rushed four times for five yards and wasn't targeted in Thursday's 6-3 loss to the Seahawks. Johnson was used in a change-of-pace role behind D'Andre Swift, whose 16 touches for 81 yards led the Bears in what was an abysmal showing by the entire offense. Swift's likely to lead the backfield once again when the Bears try to avoid ending the season on an 11-game losing streak Week 18 against the Packers, leaving Johnson with limited fantasy upside.

• Bears' Roschon Johnson: One rushing attempt in loss

  Johnson had a three-yard carry in the Bears' 34-17 loss to the Lions on Sunday. After missing the last two games due to a concussion, Johnson touched the ball once as the backup to D'Andre Swift. Since Chicago's Week 8 bye, Johnson has posted 21 or fewer scrimmage yards in six of seven games. However, the veteran has found the end zone three times in the last seven games, making him a touchdown-or-bust option in the fantasy playoffs.

  Johnson (concussion) has been ruled out and will not play Monday against the Vikings. Johnson has now missed the past two contests due to a concussion suffered during the Thanksgiving game against the Lions. With D'Andre Swift (groin) once again questionable for the contest, Travis Homer and Darrynton Evans could see additional looks.

• Bears' Roschon Johnson: Getting concussion check

  11/28/2024 • By RotoWire

  Johnson is under evaluation for a head injury during Thursday's game at Detroit. To add insult to injury in a first half in which the Bears went three and out on each of their first three possessions, their No. 2 RB may soon enter the concussion protocol. Johnson didn't have a touch prior to exiting in the second quarter.
