Jordan Howard will play third downs for Bears
Chicago Bears running back Jordan Howard will stay on the field for third down, head coach Matt Nagy said.
What It Means:
“We’ll do different things with [Howard] and we’ll keep him on the field on third down,” said Nagy. It sounds like the new staff in Chicago has faith in the 23-year-old after his targets fell from 52 to 30 during his second season. Tarik Cohen will be involved, but the Bears believe Howard can be their bell-cow.
numberFire's models project Howard for 1,262.6 rushing yards, 238.1 receiving yards, and 8.06 touchdowns in 2018. He's the RB13 in our preseason fantasy rankings.
