Barnwell noted that Herbert has &#8220;intriguing tools&#8221; and a strong yards-per-carry average.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;There&#8217;s no\u00a0Derrick Henry lurking as an immediately impactful back, but what about adding another set of fresh legs to compete with Dowdle?&#8221; Barnwell wrote. &#8220;Herbert is probably not the sort of back to shoulder a workload of 20 carries per game, but among the 46 players with 300 carries or more between 2021 and 2023, his 4.9 yards-per-carry average ranks seventh.&#8221;<\/p>\n<div class=\"m-detail--body-item m-detail--body-item-inline\">\n<figure class=\"l-inline tml-image m-detail--tml-image--inline\"><figcaption>\n<p class=\"tml-image--attribution\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/athlonsports.com\/.image\/t_share\/MTk1MTg3MzgzNDYzODQ3MTEx\/khalilherbert_justinfields_2022_usatoday.jpg\" alt=\"Khalil Herbert and Justin Fields, Chicago Bears\" \/><\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>Barnwell added that Herbert has become the &#8220;odd man out in Chicago&#8217;s rushing attack,&#8221; with D&#8217;Andre Swift and Roschon Johnson each logging more snaps. Herbert hasn&#8217;t had a touch since Week 3, and his expiring contract could make him a likely candidate to move at the trade deadline, Barnwell added.<\/p>\n<div class=\"mm-embed-card--list\">\n<div class=\"m-card--media\"><a class=\"m-card--image-link\" tabindex=\"-1\" href=\"https:\/\/athlonsports.com\/nfl\/cowboys-country\/dallas-cowboys-rico-dowdle-ezekiel-elliott-starter-dumbfounded\" rel=\"\"><picture class=\"is-loaded\"><source srcset=\"https:\/\/athlonsports.com\/.image\/ar_16:9%2Cc_fill%2Ccs_srgb%2Cg_faces:center%2Cq_auto:good%2Cw_220\/MjA5ODY2MTc3NDk1NzA1MjU3\/dalvin-rico-zeke.webp 220w, https:\/\/athlonsports.com\/.image\/ar_16:9%2Cc_fill%2Ccs_srgb%2Cg_faces:center%2Cq_auto:good%2Cw_320\/MjA5ODY2MTc3NDk1NzA1MjU3\/dalvin-rico-zeke.webp 320w, https:\/\/athlonsports.com\/.image\/ar_16:9%2Cc_fill%2Ccs_srgb%2Cg_faces:center%2Cq_auto:good%2Cw_640\/MjA5ODY2MTc3NDk1NzA1MjU3\/dalvin-rico-zeke.webp 640w\" type=\"image\/webp\" sizes=\"220px\" \/><source srcset=\"https:\/\/athlonsports.com\/.image\/ar_16:9%2Cc_fill%2Ccs_srgb%2Cg_faces:center%2Cq_auto:good%2Cw_220\/MjA5ODY2MTc3NDk1NzA1MjU3\/dalvin-rico-zeke.jpg 220w, https:\/\/athlonsports.com\/.image\/ar_16:9%2Cc_fill%2Ccs_srgb%2Cfl_progressive%2Cg_faces:center%2Cq_auto:good%2Cw_320\/MjA5ODY2MTc3NDk1NzA1MjU3\/dalvin-rico-zeke.jpg 320w, https:\/\/athlonsports.com\/.image\/ar_16:9%2Cc_fill%2Ccs_srgb%2Cfl_progressive%2Cg_faces:center%2Cq_auto:good%2Cw_640\/MjA5ODY2MTc3NDk1NzA1MjU3\/dalvin-rico-zeke.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"220px\" \/><\/picture><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"m-in-content-ad-row l-inline mm-in-content-ad-row--in-content not-size-a not-size-b not-size-d\" data-ad-group=\"in_content-1\"><\/aside>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Dallas Cowboys could make a deal with the Chicago Bears to fill a hole in the backfield.
