The Chicago Bears may have struck gold on a running back again. They stole running back Matt Forte in the second round of the 2008 draft, and now they might have done it again with Jeremy Langford in the fourth round of the 2015 draft.
Fantasy football start/sit, Week 10: Jeremy Langford looking to build off big week
Jeremy Langford shined in the Monday night spotlight last week. We break down the fantasy implications.
The Bears didn't have Forte last week due to a knee injury, which allowed Langford to go off for 72 rushing yards, 70 receiving yards and one score on his 21 touches. Forte is limited in practice this week, so there's a good chance he misses the matchup against the St. Louis Rams.
The Rams are actually a very good defense, but they’re only 15th against fantasy running backs on PPR. On the other hand, the Bears are starting to come around and Langford would essentially be in Forte’s role after his big Week 9.
Fantasy impact: If Forte is out for the early game, you’ll want to use Langford this week.
