The Bears have failed to address the running back position this offseason, and there are a few options remaining in free agency.

Freeman is no longer the workhorse back he was with the Falcons. He missed most of the 2018 season due to injury but rebounded to the tune of 656 yards on 184 carries and two touchdowns. The one aspect that Matt Nagy will love with Freeman is how versatile he is in the passing game.

Last season, Freeman hauled in 59 balls out of the backfield for 410 yards. His nearly seven yards per reception would be invaluable for a Bears offense that struggled to move the ball last year consistently.
