BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 64% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Roschon Johnson has remained in concussion protocol during each of Chicago’s last two matchups. This has prevented him from elevating into a significant role during Khalil Herbert’s absence. It has also vaulted D'Onta Foreman into temporary RB1 duties during that sequence, and he has capitalized on his expanded workload.
Foreman has now accumulated 72 snaps in Weeks 6-7 while assembling 154 rushing yards with his 31 attempts. That includes his usage and production in Week 7 when Foreman erupted for 120 total yards and three touchdowns. Foreman assembled 89 rushing yards and two touchdowns with his 16 attempts, while also generating 31 yards and a touchdown as a receiving weapon.
Foreman was operating against a Las Vegas run defense that had surrendered 121.7 yards per game entering the matchup. He appeared to sustain an injury in the third quarter. This forced him to the sideline and elevated Darrynton Evans into a larger role.
Johnson could return when Chicago visits the Chargers on Sunday, although the fact that he remains in concussion protocol is a concern. Herbert will be unavailable for at least two more games, and Foreman has accomplished enough with his touches to vault among this week’s top priorities from the waiver wire. It will be important to monitor his status as the week progresses.
