Watch: Bears' Tarik Cohen Electrifies With Punt Return Touchdown

By Chris Emma--

CHICAGO (CBS) -- No, no, no, yes? Yes.

Bears running back Tarik Cohen went from running the wrong way to striding toward the end zone Sunday, returning a second-quarter punt return 61 yards for a touchdown -- and covering a lot more ground than that.

Cohen, the fourth-round pick selected out of North Carolina A&T, didn't exactly follow coaching techniques in attempting to evade tacklers, but he managed to follow blockers eventually and find open field.

Watch as Cohen delivers a big play for the Bears, which gave them a 14-6 lead over the 49ers.
