Bears Elevating RB Salvon Ahmed

The Chicago Bears announced they are elevating running back Salvon Ahmed from their practice squad for their Week 9 game. Ahmed, 27, previously suffered a severe ankle injury from a hip-drop tackle during practice last year, which landed him on injured reserve.

Ahmed went undrafted out of Washington in 2020 before spending time with the San Francisco 49ers, Miami Dolphins, Denver Broncos, and Indianapolis Colts. In his 2023 campaign with Miami, he posted 61 rushing yards on 22 carries alongside 16 catches for 88 yards and two touchdowns.
