The Bears are putting running back Khalil Herbert on injured reserve after he hurt his ankle last week against the Commanders. The move will keep Herbert, the team’s starter, away for the next four games.

Herbert was injured while trying to catch a pass from quarterback Justin Fields.

The Bears are down to fourth-string tailback D’Onta Foreman for Sunday’s game against the Vikings. Rookie Roschon Johnson has a concussion and Travis Homer has a hamstring problem.
