Roschon Johnson Could Earn Starting Role Early

Chicago Bears running back Roschon Johnson was selected in the fourth round of the 2023 NFL Draft. His draft capital means he's not guaranteed to have a significant role in his rookie season, but he'll only have former sixth-round pick Khalil Herbert and 27-year-old journeyman running back D'Onta Foreman to compete with. Bears writer for Windy City Gridiron Jacob Infante said "There's a legit chance he takes he takes over the starting RB role in Year 1," but it'll benefit the former Texas Longhorn if he carves out a role on special teams first. Ultimately, Johnson will be an intriguing target in 2023 fantasy drafts in one of the league's most run-heavy attacks, even if he's a committee back. Foreman and Herbert have plenty of injury troubles in their careers.
