The Facts: HC Matt Nagy has been showing the Bears the end of their playoff loss to the Eagles often this offseason in hopes of sparking a better result the next time the team is in that position, but it doesn’t look like the path to that result will include a big change in roles for running back Cohen. “I feel like I’m going to be doing the same things I was doing last year,” Cohen said. “My role is not going to change. I still have to be the receiving back, come in be the change of pace back, running the ball, be that speedy guy. I’m just prepared for anything however I get the ball.”
Diehards Line:
The Bears traded Jordan Howard to the Eagles while signing Mike Davis and drafting David Montgomery, which might have some thinking that Cohen’s marching orders will be a bit different in 2019. Cohen ran the ball 99 times and caught 71 passes last year, and he said he’s seen no sign of a change so far this year. The Bears didn’t use Howard much as a receiver, but Davis caught 34 passes last year and Nagy has talked up Montgomery’s skills in the passing game this spring.
