Projecting Benny Cunningham’s Fantasy Value in 2017

The Chicago Bears signed several middle of the road free agents in the off-season, one of them being running back Benny Cunningham. Cunningham spent the first four seasons of his career with the St. Louis/Los Angeles Rams and proved to be a useful backup.

Cunningham has a decent yards per carry average and is a useful pass catcher out of the backfield. In addition to that, Cunningham is a reliable, albeit pedestrian kick returner as well. Cunningham doesn’t have a guaranteed roster spot, but he certainly is in the driver spot to grab the RB2 spot on the team and be the main backup behind Jordan Howard.
