Didn’t expect someone to talk to him this quickly. Figured they’d give it a few months. But sounds like they may be open to signing him...

As for the Bears, unreal landing spot if that happens. It lets Cohen convert to a specialist role and relegates Howard who I don’t think is all that talented.
Nagy knows him from KC. Cohen is really more of a RB that catches. Howard his the bruiser. Howard played better toward the end of the year but his contract is coming up and Hunt would be a better get. He won't break the bank either.
Howard had a pretty bad year. 3.7 YPC on 250 carries.

They already have Howard and Cohen at RB, seems like a crowded backfield

Howard becomes expendable to be quite honest.....and Cohen would continue in his role as scat back and receiver with Hunt carrying the load.
Instant upgrade, but that comes with consequences.......
