Jeremy Langford to replace Matt Forte on 2016 Bears?

Change happens quickly in the NFL.

Sidelined two weeks with an MCL sprain, Chicago Bears running back Matt Forte is already fielding questions about rookie Jeremy Langford as his eventual replacement.

"The fans are the fans," Forte said Thursday, via the Chicago Sun-Times. "The NFL is 'What have you done for me lately.' I've been out a few games and Jeremy has done well stepping in for me. So everybody is always looking for the next best thing. With [me] being in my contract year, it's obvious that that's the storyline that will come up.
