Khalil Herbert Likely To Lead Bears' Backfield In Week 12
Published: Nov 25, 2023 at 11:12 PM
Chicago Bears running back Khalil Herbert had an underwhelming return in Week 11, managing just 35 rushing yards on 16 carries and an additional six yards from two receptions. Despite the lackluster performance, the 25-year-old commanded the majority of opportunities in the running back room, totaling 18 touches compared to Roschon Johnson and D'Onta Foreman's six each. Foreman enters Week 12 with a questionable tag due to an ankle injury suffered in the previous week's loss. Regardless of Foreman's availability, Herbert is poised to once again lead the backfield in touches. Facing the Minnesota Vikings, who rank 22nd for points allowed to running backs this season, Herbert emerges as a viable RB3/flex option for Week 12. The potential volume enhances Herbert's fantasy appeal, making him a notable consideration for fantasy managers.
