Chicago Bears rookie running back Tarik Cohen shocked the NFL in the first week of the season. The fourth-round draft pick had 113 yards from scrimmage against the Atlanta Falcons Sunday, rushing five times for 66 yards and catching eight passes for 47 yards and a touchdown on 12 targets. Cohen was the top target and was barely out-touched by starter Josh Howard in the game.
Fantasy football start/sit advice, Week 2: Tarik Cohen
The Bears’ rookie burst onto the fantasy scene with a big performance in the season opener. Can he keep it going in Week 2?


Chicago heads to Tampa Bay Sunday to face the Buccaneers. The Bucs struggled against pass-catching running backs in 2016. Majority of QB Mike Glennon’s passes were check-downs to tight ends and running backs in Week 1.
Fantasy impact: Cohen was probably the hottest waiver pickup after Week 1. He looked like a highlight reel against a tough Falcons defense and played better than any other Bear on the field. Now, he has a favorable matchup in Tampa Bay. Owners should expect even more production from Cohen Sunday.
