Roschon Johnson is headed to the Windy City.
The Chicago Bears selected the Texas running back in the fourth round of the 2023 NFL draft on Saturday.
Johnson is a do-it-all player, capable of contributing in a variety of different ways on the football field. He ran for 2,190 yards and scored 26 touchdowns out of the backfield at Texas. Johnson also made a number of standout plays on special teams during his college career.
After Bijan Robinson went in the first round on Thursday, this marks the first time a Big 12 school has had two running backs go in the top four rounds of the draft. Johnson joins fellow former Longhorn D’Onta Foreman in the Chicago backfield.
Johnson is clearly excited to get started with the Bears. Watch here as he celebrates being drafted.
