6 years agoChicago Bears running back Tarik Cohen will try and get his season back on track this Thursday against the Lions on Thanksgiving. Cohen has posted only 107 yards from scrimmage over his last three games and has been largely ineffective since taking a screen pass to the house for a 70-yard touchdown against the Jets in Week 8. Opposing defenses have been focusing on taking Cohen out of the Bears game plan and will face a Lions defense that is allowing the ninth most fantasy points to opposing backs. Cohen's presence on the field certainly opens up other offensive options for the Bears but it has been a while since he broke off a huge play. With quarterback Mitch Trubisky not practicing this week with a shoulder injury, Cohen will need to step up and has even thrown a pass or two in head coach Matt Nagy's offense. Cohen will be boom-or-bust in Week 12.--Joey C - RotoBaller
