Chicago Bears list Jordan Lynch as running back

The Chicago Bears have signed former Northern Illinois star Jordan Lynch as part of their undrafted free agent class and have listed him as a running back.

Having been told that he could play as a quarterback in the NFL, Lynch participated in running back drills at the scouting combine in order to show off his best asset.

Lynch was a Heisman Trophy finalist after running for 1,920 yards and 23 touchdowns last season and will now try to make a successful step up into the league.

The Bears will also be taking a closer look at a number of other prospects that were not drafted over the next few months.
