Bears | Artavis Pierce has a chance

Chicago Bears RB Artavis Pierce is the most traditional running back behind RB David Montgomery (groin), who is out two to four weeks. ‘He’s quicker than fast,’ one national scout said. ‘I didn’t see the timed speed on tape. He plays more in the 4.5 range, which is fine. He has speed through the hole through to the second level, and that’s what is most important. He moves well laterally. But this kid isn’t going to break tackles like Montgomery. Not a pass catcher, at least how they utilized him. He might have a chance.’
