Bears release running back Tarik Cohen

The Bears will be releasing running back Tarik Cohen with an injury designation, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported on Friday.

EDIT: The Bears made this official on Wednesday, March 16.

Cohen suffered a torn ACL in Week 3 of the 2020 season and has yet to play a down since the injury, with Schefter reporting Cohen is still unable to pass a physical. The old Bears regime remained pretty quiet with updates surrounding the running back’s health, but after a certain point, it became clear that he was in no shape to return to the field.
