The Bears got something — a very little something — in exchange for running back Khalil Herbert.
On Tuesday morning, hours before the NFL’s 3 p.m. trade deadline, they sent the running back to the Bengals for a seventh-round pick in 2025.
Herbert is in the final year of his contract. He was a healthy scratch Sunday — one of only two on the Bears’ active roster — for the second consecutive week.
He played only 27 offensive snaps this season, stuck behind starter D’Andre Swift — who got a three-year, $24 million deal in March — and backup Roschon Johnson.
