WATCH: Highlights of Bears’ 4th-round pick RB Roschon Johnson

The Chicago Bears selected Texas running back Roschon Johnson in the fourth round of the 2023 NFL Draft. The former Longhorns standout will compete with veterans Khalil Herbert and D’Onta Foreman for gameday reps, but he joins the roster as the most appealing all-around running back on the depth chart.

Bears southwest area scout John Syty on RB Roschon Johnson: “He fits everything Ryan and Matt are trying to accomplish. He’s a HITS principle guy. He just emulates everything we want a Chicago Bear to be. … The “it” factor about this kid is special.”
