How Good Has Kyle Monangai Been This Season?
In short, really good—but how does he stack up with the rest of the rookie running back class and previous Bears rookies?
Bears rookie running back Kyle Monangai was as good as it gets against the Eagles in Week 13.
The seventh-rounder rushed for 130 yards and a touchdown on 22 carries (5.9 YPC). Monangai’s big afternoon marked his second 100-plus yard rushing performance this season, and brought his season totals to 591 yards and five touchdowns.
As I wrote in Tuesday’s Good, Better, Best, Monangai’s surge in usage in the middle portion of the schedule has allowed him to stack up favorably with the rest of the running backs in his rookie class. But where exactly does he stack up, and how does that compare to previous Bears rookie running back performances?
