The Chicago Bears are gearing up for a strong 2026 season out of their running backs. With the team having the third-best rushing offense in the NFL in 2025, this is expected to be a strength for the Bears in 2026. They have some quality running backs on the roster, putting them in one of the top positions in the sport. Chicago’s offense looked strong, but where do its top running backs rank compared to the rest of the league? Let’s take a closer look at where they rank by one outlet.

Bleacher Report ranks the Chicago Bears’ RB duo as the second-best in the NFL

Bleacher Report’s Moe Moton wrote an article ranking the best running back duos heading into the 2026 season. The Bears got an incredible ranking, being second in the NFL. Below is what Moton wrote about the Bears:

“Chicago Bears head coach Ben Johnson has a familiar face at running back in D’Andre Swift, who played in his system for one season with the Detroit Lions and a found a seventh-round gem in Kyle Monangai. Swift is coming off his most productive season in which he finished with career highs in rushing yards (1,087), rushing touchdowns (nine) and scrimmage yards (1,386). As long as Swift avoids short-term injuries that plagued him early in his career, he could continue to see an increase in productivity entering his age-27 campaign.

“As a pass-catcher, Monangai has seen limited action, but he’s already exceeded expectations as the No. 233 overall pick from last year’s draft. Monangai carved out a sizable role on the ground, rushing for 783 yards and five touchdowns, averaging 4.6 yards per carry. He’s interchangeable with Swift in rushing duties, matching the lead ball-carrier’s efficiency on the ground. If Monangai makes strides as a pass-catcher, this tandem could move into the No. 1 spot next year.”

The only running back duo ahead of them is from the Los Angeles Rams with Kyren Williams and Blake Corum. With a significantly different offensive line in 2026 than in 2025, this could be difficult to reach. Chicago finished the 2025 season third in the sport with 144.5 rushing yards per game. It will be intriguing to see how well Swift and Monangai look in 2026.
