Bears running back Roschon Johnson runs against the Vikings on Monday night.

With running back D’Onta Foreman out Monday with an ankle and shin injury, the Bears gave rookie Roschon Johnson his most playing time of the season.

They played him on 74% of their offensive snaps in the 12-10 win against the Vikings. Khalil Herbert, whom the Bears treated as their unquestioned starter at the start of the season, played only 21% of the snaps.

Johnson had 10 rushes for 35 yards and five catches for 40 yards.
