Bears reportedly interested in RB prospect Carlos Washington Jr. |
The NFL Draft is an exciting time for football fans and teams alike.
It's a chance to bring in new talent and build for the future. The Chicago Bears are one team that has shown interest in a draft prospect, running back Carlos Washington Jr., according to reporter Daniel Greenberg. Washington Jr. played college football at Southeastern Louisiana University, where he had an impressive 15 touchdowns this past season. At 5'11" and 210 pounds, he has the size and athleticism to excel at the next level. He hails from Fort Washington, MD, and attended Riverdale Baptist High School. The addition of a talented back like Washington Jr. would add a depth piece in the running back room for a lower-level draft pick. In addition to his impressive college stats, Washington Jr. also has impressive physical attributes. He boasts a 4.6 40-yard dash time, indicating his decent speed at his size and agility on the field. His size and strength also make him difficult to bring down, as he can break tackles and pick up extra yards after contact. Look for the Bears to add one more running back during the offseason likely through the upcoming draft.
