The Chicago Bears are in active trade discussions with the Minnesota Vikings regarding running back Khalil Herbert. Despite depth at the position limiting Herbert's playing time, he remains a coveted trade asset. The Vikings, who recently acquired Cam Akers, reportedly preferred Herbert and had substantial talks with Chicago, though the deal did not materialize, likely due to price disagreements. The upcoming trade deadline on November 5 could prompt the Bears to explore options to trade Herbert, who is in the last year of his rookie contract.
