Let’s just say, the hype around Jeremy Langford was much higher going into 2016 than 2017. Langford suffered an injury in week two that gave Jordan Howard a chance at legitimate carries.
Langford missed some time, and Howard never looked back with the starting running back job. Langford missed four games, but he had 86 less carries and 337 fewer yards than a season before.
2017 Outlook
Langford has lost his starting job, and now he is just hoping to keep a job on the team. The Bears drafted Tarik Cohen and signed Benny Cunningham this offseason.
