Former Bears running back Tarik Cohen wants his life story to become a movie

(670 The Score) Former Bears running back Tarik Cohen was a star on the rise before it all fell apart in 2020. After his career was set back by a torn ACL that season, he then suffered personal tragedy.

Cohen endured the loss of two brothers, Tyrell in 2021 and Dante in 2022, and hasn’t taken the field in an NFL game since suffering his devastating injury in 2020. He signed with the Panthers last year and remains under contract with Carolina entering 2024.

While he's looking ahead to what's next, Cohen also hopes his story can be one to share with others and perhaps tell in Hollywood.

“I’m sure it would be like a great movie,” Cohen said on the Parkins & Spiegel Show on Wednesday. “If I correct the ending and get back in the NFL and do some great things there, I can have a storybook ending and really do something good on that level outside of football.

“As long as I’m breathing, the story can’t be over.”
