Chicago Bears linked to 13-TD running back to jumpstart Ben Johnson’s offense
As offensive coordinator of the Detroit Lions, Ben Johnson parlayed one of the most prolific backfield duos in the NFL into the hallmark of one of the sport’s most explosive and punishing offenses.
While D’Andre Swift has been fine in Chicago’s backfield alongside quarterback Caleb Williams, Johnson and the Bears could look to make a significant upgrade at the position in the offseason ahead.
Is Notre Dame RB Jeremiyah Love an ideal fit for Chicago Bears?
Given the salary cap issues the Bears are likely to face in March, with just over $1.6 million in spending flexibility, as the cap is currently projected, general manager Ryan Poles and Chicago could look to move off of Swift, in favor of a younger, more explosive, and most importantly, cheaper option at the position.
Swift is set to count $8.8 million against the cap in 2026, but the Bears can create $7.5 million in cap space while absorbing a mere $1.3 million dead money charge against the cap by releasing the 26-year-old after June 1.
Over at CBS Sports, NFL analyst Josh Edwards projects the Bears will select Notre Dame running back Jeremiyah Love with the No. 22 overall pick next April.
“Ben Johnson took an offensive approach to his first draft,” Edwards writes for CBS. “Adding an offensive tackle, wide receiver and tight end. The organization had been linked to a running back in the first round last year, but ultimately went in another direction. Kyle Monangai’s ascension may preclude Chicago from taking a running back early, but there’s no question Love would be a dynamic addition.”
Love is projected to be the No. 1 running back in the class, and it’s easy to see why, given his production as the Fighting Irish’s lead back, rushing for 988 yards and 13 touchdowns, so far this season.
It’s easy to envision Love as the centerpiece of a backfield in Johnson’s offense, especially if the Bears look to replicate the Lions’ formula with an explosive back such as Love splitting carries with a versatile and speedy young back like Monangai, who already seems to be punching above his draft positioning.
