Just four carries as backup Herbert rushed four times for 13 yards in Monday night's 29-27 loss to the Steelers.
Impact Herbert saw veteran David Montgomery return from a four-game absence to lead Chicago's backfield with 15 touches for 80 yards. Although the rookie got three carries during the first half, he was hardly involved during the second, taking a back seat to Montgomery as the Bears staged a comeback attempt. Given Herbert's production while Montgomery was previously sidelined, it's possible he's incorporated more in the offense following the team's Week 10 bye, but Herbert's stock has clearly taken a hit now that he's a second-stringer again.

Impact When he spoke to the media earlier Monday, head coach Matt Nagy didn't go into detail regarding what Montgomery's workload might look like in his first game back after a one-month absence, but the 24-year-old appears likely to pace the Chicago backfield in snaps and touches against the Steelers following a good week of practice. The Bears could be inclined to ease Montgomery in to some extent rather than having him immediately reclaim the 70-to-80 percent snap shares he routinely handled in 2020 and through the first weeks of the current season, but in any case there likely won't be enough work left over for Herbert to provide meaningful fantasy value. The rookie sixth-round pick at least proved to be a capable replacement over the past four weeks, averaging 4.4 yards per carry on 78 attempts while hauling in nine of 10 targets for 44 yards and scoring a touchdown.

Receives 25 touches in loss Herbert rushed 23 times for 72 yards and caught two passes for negative four yards in the Bears' 33-22 loss to the 49ers on Sunday.
Impact Herbert started out strong, but the 49ers started to load the box, which bottled him up the rest of the way. He's now handled at least 21 touches in each of his last three games, and he'll remain a strong fantasy option until David Montgomery (knee) returns, and then it remains to be seen what Herbert's role will be at that time.

Hits century mark on ground Herbert rushed 18 times for 100 yards and caught five passes for 33 yards in the Bears' 38-3 loss to the Buccaneers on Sunday.
Impact Facing a Bucs defense that boasts one of the best run defenses in the league, Herbert was the lone bright spot for the Bears in this game. Gaining most of his yardage in the first half, he had more yardage on the ground than the team had through the air at intermission. Even though Damien Williams was active, Herbert was the clear lead back, and there's a great chance he'll remain in that role until David Montgomery (knee) returns to the lineup.

May share workload Week 7 Herbert could see his workload decrease after Damien Williams (illness) was activated off the reserve/COVID-19 list in time for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers.
Impact The Bears haven't officially stated who will take over as the starter given Saturday's development, but it wouldn't be surprising to see both Williams and Herbert revert back to the Week 5 workload split, when the duo combined for a near even share of 34 carries. Herbert's excellence against the Packers last week could help him earn the larger share of the aforementioned split, especially if Williams has to work back into game shape after testing positive for COVID-19, but looming over the complicated situation is the fearsome Buccaneers run defense, which has held opponents to a miniscule 54.8 rushing yards per game. As a result, neither Herbert nor Williams profiles as an upper-tier fantasy play save for deeper formats.
