Leads team in rushing
Herbert rushed 18 times for 75 yards in the Bears' 20-9 win over the Raiders on Sunday.
Although Damien Williams drew the start, Herbert was involved in the rushing attack early, and as the Bears played with a lead in the second half, he dominated touches as the team closed out the contest. He also had carries in the red zone but failed to cash in, and Damien Williams punched in the only rushing score the team had. Given the amount of work Herbert was given, he may be useful in fantasy lineups while David Montgomery (knee) misses time.
