raining camp is in full swing for the Dallas

Cowboys, but that doesn’t mean they couldn’t

still make an important addition at running back.

While Dallas does have several options already,

Chicago Bears RB Khalil Herbert has appeared as

a potential way to improve the group.

examined a number of RBs that Dallas might go

after on July 28. Given that he is now ranked

third on the Bears’ depth chart, the 26-year-old

may be traded. After David Montgomery left the

team last year, Herbert was supposed to be the

workhorse, but he continued in a part-time

capacity. Given that he is the Bears’ third running

back this season, his role may be reduced.

Chicago acquired D’Andre Swift, a free agent, and

Roschon Johnson, a back in his second season.

Herbert is in the final year of his rookie contract,

so any trade would probably just result in a one-

year rental. Nevertheless, given that he just

finished one season after leading all running

backs in yards per carry with 5.7, he wouldn’t be

a bad late-round selection pick be a bad

investment,” Rogers wrote.

He may not be a superstar, but he has proven

that he can add energy to an NFL offense like the

cowboys

Herbert Begins NFL Career with Bears

After his college career at Kansas and Virginia

Tech, Herbert was drafted by Chicago in the sixth

round of the 2021 NFL draft. Herbert did not

arrive to massive expectations, but quickly gave

Bears fans a reason for optimism. Pro Football

Reference reports that Herbert finished 2021

with 433 running yards. As a rookie, he averaged

4.2 yards per rush and scored two touchdowns.

The RB set himself up for a huge second season

even though those numbers don’t jump off the

page. Herbert gained 731 running yards and four

touchdowns in 2022. The former Jayhawk only

made one start for Chicago but averaged an

incredible 5.7 yards per rush. In 2023, Herbert

did experience some regression, finishing with

611 running yards and 2 touchdowns in 12

games. Even though his average carry decreased

to 4.6 yards per touch, he was still producing a

good amount.

Cowboys RB Speaks on CeeDee Lamb Holdout

The Cowboys need to resolve CeeDee Lamb’s

predicament before they can think about adding

a running back. The best receiver in Dallas is not

participating in training camp while he searches

for a new deal. Cowboys running back Ezekiel

Elliott is maintaining his composure despite the

fact that nothing is perfect for anybody

concerned. According to ESPN reporter Todd

Archer, Elliott stated on July 26 that “it’s really

tough because you go through your first three or

four years and you guys are on the same side,

and this is the first time that now you’re kind of

going against each other.” It seems that you need

to be a little thick-skinned. Though there are a

few tiny extras that come with it, ultimately

we’re all have the same goal.”
