Bears' Ka'Deem Carey: Undergoes wrist surgery
Ka'Deem Carey underwent wrist surgery and is expected to miss about six weeks, Brad Biggs of the Chicago Tribune reports.Carey was assumed to be in a battle for a roster spot with Jeremy Langford going into the preseason, and this injury won't help Carey's chances to win the job. Even if he makes the team, Carey is expected to be buried on the depth chart behind Jordan Howard (eye), Tarik Cohen and Bennie Cunningham, so his fantasy value is quite limited.

Bears' Ka'Deem Carey: Possibly fighting for roster spot
Ka'Deem Carey could be battling Jeremy Langford for a roster spot during training camp, Jeff Dickerson of ESPN.com reports.Carey was deactivated for the final two games of 2016, so the writing could be on the wall, especially after the team brought in Benny Cunningham and Tarik Cohen during the offseason. That said, Carey ran for 3.9 yards per carry, opposed to 3.2 yards per tote for Langford, so Carey was better as a runner. Regardless, he'll not only need to beat out Langford, but he'll also need to move ahead of Cunningham and Cohen to have much fantasy relevance behind Jordan Howard.

Bears' Ka'Deem Carey: Inactive for final two games of season
Ka'Deem Carey was a healthy scratch for the final two games of the season, and ended the campaign with 32 carries for 126 yards while catching five passes for 55 yardsCarey rushed for 3.9 yards per carry on the year, and once Jordan Howard emerged as a rising star, Carey touched the football just 11 times over his last seven games before being deactivated for the final two games of the season. During Weeks 16 and 17, Jeremy Langford saw 21 touches in the two games, though he rushed for just 2.7 yards per carry during that time. Carey's under contract next year, and he'll likely be given a chance to compete for a backup role behind Howard, but based on his 2016 performance, he'll need to significantly improve over the off-season to be considered as a fantasy factor.
