The Bears are tightening the roster at running back, prioritizing versatility over niche skills—special teams and pass protection now matter as much as touchdowns. With only three or four spots likely to be filled, players like Salvon Ahmed and Brittain Brown must prove they can hold their ground against blitzes. Roschon Johnson stands out as the power back who checks all boxes: he’s proven himself on special teams, in pass protection, and with his ability to run the ball. For Ahmed and Brown, the path to staying on the roster is steep—but if the starters go down, these backups better be ready to carry the load.
