Matt Forte Out For Week 3; Fantasy Owners Turn To Michael Bush
Chicago Bears running back Matt Forte has been ruled out of Sunday’s game because of an ankle injury. We break down the fantasy implications.
Fantasy Impact: This was expected and will be good news for those fantasy owners who own Michael Bush, who should be considered a low-end No. 1 fantasy running back option this week against the Rams. Bush has rushed for two touchdowns this season and should be in line for his biggest workload since joining the Bears in the offseason.
