Foreman rushed 21 times for 80 yards and a touchdown and secured both targets for 12 yards in the Bears' 16-13 win over the Panthers on Thursday night.

EDGE Analysis

Khalil Herbert (ankle) wasn't activated from injured reserve ahead of Thursday's game, affording Foreman at least one more run as the lead back. The bruising veteran took advantage of the opportunity to churn out another workman-like performance, one that featured his third rushing score of the season in the form of a four-yard run just past the halfway point of the third quarter. Foreman has eclipsed 80 rushing yards in three of his last four games, but with 10 days until Chicago's Week 11 divisional road showdown against the Lions, Herbert is likely to return for that contest and put a dent into Foreman's workload to some degree.

Foreman is expected to remain the Bears' lead option out of the backfield Thursday against the Panthers after Chicago didn't activate Kahlil Herbert (ankle) from injured reserve for Week 10, Larry Mayer of the Bears' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

While Herbert was sidelined for each of the last four games and while Roschon Johnson was sidelined with a concussion for Weeks 6 and 7, Foreman -- who had been a healthy inactive Weeks 2 through 5 -- took the reins of the Chicago backfield. After accounting for 187 yards from scrimmage and three touchdowns on 35 touches over his first two starts, Foreman proceeded to remain the Bears' top back while Johnson was back in the fold for the past two weeks, out-touching the rookie by a 30-12 margin. Herbert was designated for return from IR on Monday and was listed as a full practice participant throughout the week, but the Bears will wait at least one more week before adding him back to the roster. With the complexion of the Chicago backfield for Thursday's game being the same it as has been for the past two weeks, look for Foreman to once again lead the way in carries while Johnson mixes in for change-of-pace work.

Foreman rushed 20 times for 83 yards in the Bears' 24-17 loss to the Saints on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

The bruising back took on another heavy workload as the unquestioned lead back and was reasonably productive with the opportunity. Foreman didn't have any involvement in the passing game after logging eight targets over the previous three games, but his rushing yardage tally was his second over 80 in his four-game starting stint. Khalil Herbert (IR-ankle) is eligible to return for Thursday night's Week 10 matchup against the Panthers, but with Foreman putting together a solid body of work thus far and a divisional clash against the Lions on tap in Week 11, the Bears may opt to be cautious with Herbert for the time being.

Foreman rushed nine times for 34 yards and caught one of his two targets for two yards in Sunday's 30-13 loss to the Chargers.

EDGE Analysis

Foreman was coming off a massive three-TD performance against the Raiders, but that didn't seem to earn the veteran any extra work against the Chargers, as he split carries almost evenly with Roschon Johnson (nine touches for 31 yards), who sat out that Week 7 game with a concussion. Predictably, neither back generated noteworthy fantasy lines in their smaller, shared roles. This figures to be the case again Sunday against the Saints barring any unforeseen roster moves, and Khalil Herbert (ankle) could be back in the mix as well as soon as Week 10.

Foreman carried the ball 16 times for 89 yards and two touchdowns while catching three of five targets for 31 yards and a third TD in Sunday's 30-12 win over the Raiders.

EDGE Analysis

With Khalil Herbert (ankle) on IR and Roschon Johnson not yet cleared through the league's concussion protocol, Foreman was the lead back for the Bears and scored his first touchdowns of the season in his first three-TD performance since Week 8 of last year, when he was with the Panthers. The veteran back has had trouble even getting onto the field in Chicago and was a healthy scratch for four of the first five games, but after this performance, Foreman figures to have a significant role in Week 8 against the Chargers regardless of Johnson's availability.

Foreman rushed 15 times for 65 yards and brought in his only target for two yards in the Bears' 19-13 loss to the Vikings on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Foreman took the reins of the backfield as expected with Khalil Herbert (IR-ankle) and Roschon Johnson (concussion) unavailable, and the veteran back put together a solid effort in a game during which the Bears lost Justin Fields to a hand injury. Foreman unsurprisingly didn't factor much into the passing game, but he certainly gave a strong enough accounting to continue handling lead-back duties in a Week 7 home matchup versus the Raiders if Johnson is unable to clear concussion protocol in time for that contest.

Foreman is set to lead Chicago's backfield Sunday against the Vikings, as fellow running backs Khalil Herbert (ankle), Roschon Johnson (concussion) and Travis Homer (hamstring) have all been ruled out.

EDGE Analysis

Foreman spent the past four games as a healthy inactive, but he's set to jump into the lead role against the Vikings, with Darrynton Evans on hand to serve as a change-of-pace option behind him. Last season with the Panthers, Foreman averaged 119.7 rushing yards in the six games in which he logged at least 15 rushing attempts.

Foreman, who has been a healthy inactive for the Bears' last four games, could factor into the game plan Week 6 against the Vikings due to numerous injuries in Chicago's running back group, Gene Chamberlain of SI.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

In the aftermath of Thursday's 40-20 win over the Commanders, all three backs the Bears had active for the contest sustained an injury. The high-ankle sprain that No. 1 back Khalil Herbert suffered is the most significant and will likely sideline him for multiple weeks, while backups Roschon Johnson (concussion) and Travis Homer (hamstring) are also looking iffy for the Week 6 contest. The Bears have already restored some depth to the position group by poaching Darrynton Evans from the Dolphins' practice squad, but Foreman profiles as a more realistic candidate to lead the ground attack if neither Herbert nor Johnson are available. After carrying five times for 16 yards and adding two receptions for eight yards in the Bears' Week 1 loss to the Packers, Foreman fell out of the backfield rotation while the coaching staff elected to install Johnson as Herbert's top understudy.

Foreman (coach's decision) is listed as inactive Thursday at Washington.

EDGE Analysis

Since opening the season with seven touches for 24 yards from scrimmage Week 1 against the Packers, Foreman now will be a healthy scratch for a fourth consecutive game. Instead, the Bears will continue to roll with Khalil Herbert as their No. 1 running back, Roschon Johnson as the primary backup and Travis Homer almost exclusively on special teams.

Foreman (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Broncos.

EDGE Analysis

Foreman has now been a healthy scratch for three consecutive weeks and remains buried on the Bears' running back depth chart. Travis Homer (ankle) is able to suit up, and he'll remain the third back for Chicago.
