With Matt Forte headed to the Jets, Carey has a great chance to see an increased role in 2016.
Although Jeremy Langford is penciled in as the Bears starting running back for 2016, Carey had at least seven carries in four different games while Forte struggled with injuries last season. Although Carey didn't post more than 56 yards in any game, he did average 4.01 yards per carry, so it's possible he can earn a significant portion of early-down work in the Bears backfield.
