4 things to know about new Bears RB Roschon Johnson

The Chicago Bears opened up Day 3 of the NFL Draft by adding a legitimate offensive weapon to the mix. Texas Running back Roschon Johnson was drafted by the Bears with the No. 115 pick in the fourth round. The Bears initially held the top spot of the day at No. 103 but traded down 12 spots with the New Orleans Saints, picking up pick No. 165 in the fifth round as well.

Johnson comes to the Bears after backing up star running back Bijan Robinson, but is an effective player in his own right. He’s a punishing runner who can break tackles and should compete for touches almost immediately  on offense with the likes of Khalil Herbert and D’Onta Foreman.
