After a long layoff, the Bears return to action this weekend against the Detroit Lions. Here are the five storylines to watch heading into Sunday's game.

With injuries to Khalil Herbert and Roschon Johnson at running back, the Bears could be looking toward D'Onta Foreman to be their starting running back this weekend against Minnesota. Foreman hasn't played since Week 1.

Khalil Herbert is going to be a big part of the Bears' offense in 2023. Herbert was the most efficient running back in the NFL last season.

The Bears used their first pick during day three of the draft on Texas running back Roschon Johnson. This season will be about finding out what exactly Johnson can do. It's possible they found a diamond in the rough, but he'll have to prove it.

D'Onta Foreman dealt with multiple injuries and his father's death prior to his big break in the NFL. His successful 2022 proved to himself and his doubters that he can be a difference-maker.

With David Montgomery gone, the 2023 season will be a big one for running back Khalil Herbert. But new additions bring plenty of competition at running back.

If Fields is to become the player the Bears are dreaming about, he needs to run the ball less. A lot less. But, if they are going to notably improve the league’s worst passing game, they can’t afford a step back in the running game, Hub Arkush writes.

Jack Sanborn and David Montgomery won the Brian Piccolo Award, given annually to a Bears rookie and a Bears veteran who exemplified the courage, loyalty, teamwork, dedication and sense of humor of the late Brian Piccolo.

Changing NFL strategies have devalued the running back position, but a special prospect such as Texas' Bijan Robinson potentially falling to No. 9 is a scenario Bears GM Ryan Poles at least has to consider, Hub Arkush writes.

D'Onta Foreman had a breakout season in 2022 with the Carolina Panthers. Now, he believes he can make a difference in the Chicago Bears' backfield.

With $98 million in available salary cap space, the Bears have more money to spend than any other NFL team this year. General manager Ryan Poles has nearly unlimited options ahead of him for bolstering an offense led by quarterback Justin Fields.

Ryan Poles has plenty of work cut out for him in the coming months. Here's a breakdown of where the Bears' roster stands now. Who is under contract and who is a free agent?

Justin Fields needs more help – more receivers, more linemen. But, first and foremost, "my job is strictly get better, work on my skills at quarterback," Fields said. The 23-year-old QB is focused more on himself than anything.

After a week off, the Bears return to action this week with a matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles. Head coach Matt Eberflus said rookies Jaquan Brisker and Kyler Gordon should be back in the starting lineup after sitting out with concussions.

A.J. Dillon’s 21-yard TD run and Christian Watson’s 46-yard jet sweep that went for a touchdown enabled the Packers to overcome deficits of 10-0 and 16-3 and walk out of Soldier Field with a 28-19 victory.

The Bears generated zero quarterback hits on Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers. Plus a young secondary played surprisingly well, tackle Alex Leatherwood saw his first action and a blocked field goal proved costly.

After sitting out this week, does Justin Fields still have a shot at Lamar Jackson's 2019 QB rushing record? What if he sits out again against Green Bay? Here are the latest stats that stand out for the Bears.

Bears coach Matt Eberflus said that receiver Darnell Mooney will likely have surgery on his ankle and his 2022 season will be over. Eberflus did not provide an update on injured safety Eddie Jackson.
