Top Bears News

  • Bears' Kyle Monangai: Estimated as DNP on Wednesday

    Monangai (thumb/toe) was listed as a non-participant on Wednesday's practice estimate.

    Monangai technically is being listed with a pair of health concerns, but it's a turf toe injury that sidelined him this past Sunday at Green Bay and is threatening to keep him there for at least one more week. Fellow RB D'Andre Swift avoided the Bears' first Week 6 injury report entirely, so he's poised to be the team's clear lead runner for as long as Monangai is out.

  • Bears' T.J. Edwards: Facing multi-week absence

    Edwards (hamstring) is considered week-to-week, Adam Hoge of AllCHGO.com reports.

    Edwards suffered a hamstring injury in Sunday's loss to the Packers and did not return. While he hasn't officially been ruled out for the Week 6 meeting with the Falcons, he's not expected to be on the field. If that's the case, D'Marco Jackson and Noah Sewell are expected to be more involved.

  • Bears' Dayo Odeyingbo: Expected to miss time

    Odeyingbo (quadriceps) is expected to miss time, Adam Hoge of AllCHGO.com reports.

    Odeyingbo isn't anticipated to land on injured reserve, though he could end up missing a few games, starting with the Week 6 meeting with the Falcons. With Montez Sweat (suspension) also sidelined for the next two contests, Daniel Hardy and James Lynch could see more snaps alongside Austin Booker for the foreseeable future.

  • Bears' Caleb Williams: Listed as full practice participant Wednesday

    Bears head coach Ben Johnson said that Williams (hamstring) will listed as a full practice participant on Wednesday's estimated injury report, Sean Hammond of the Chicago Tribune reports.

    Chicago is holding a walkthrough to begin Week 6 prep, but Williams' full listing on the injury report is a positive indicator that Johnson is preparing for him to start Sunday in Atlanta. Assuming Williams experiences no setbacks in his recovery from a Grade 2 right hamstring strain while practicing throughout the week, he should get the green light to return to action against the Falcons following a three-game absence. Chicago has gone 2-1 without their top quarterback over the past three weeks, with Tyson Bagent directing the offense for two of those contests and Case Keenum starting the other.

  • Bears' Shemar Turner: Comes off PUP list

    The Bears activated Turner (knee) from their reserve/PUP list Tuesday.

    Per Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com, Turner is poised to fill the spot on Chicago's 53-man roster vacated by Montez Sweat, who was dealt a two-game suspension Tuesday for violating the league's performance-enhancing substances policy. Turner figures to play a rotational role on the interior of the defensive line starting in a Week 6 matchup at Atlanta.

  • Bears' Kalif Raymond: Quiet in Week 5 loss at Lambeau Field

    Raymond caught three of four passes for six yards and logged one carry for minus-two yards during the Bears' 31-7 loss to the Packers on Sunday. He also returned one punt for nine yards.

    Sunday's NFC North was an offensive struggle for the Bears, with head coach Ben Johnson opting to bench Tyson Bagent late in the third quarter after the latter threw his second interception of the contest. Two of Raymond's four touches resulted in negative yards, and the veteran wide receiver has logged six receiving yards in each of his last two games after producing a 19-214-1 receiving line (21 targets) through Chicago's first three games of the regular season. He's reverted to the WR3 role behind Luther Burden and Rome Odunze, but Raymond and the other Bears pass catchers would all have their scoring floors boosted if Caleb Williams (hamstring) is cleared to return for Week 7 against the Falcons this Sunday.

  • Bears' Montez Sweat: Handed two-game ban

    The NFL announced Tuesday that Sweat has been suspended two games without pay for violating the league's performance-enhancing substances policy, Brad Biggs of the Chicago Tribune reports.

    Barring a successful appeal, Sweat will sit out games Sunday in Atlanta and in Week 7 versus the Patriots. The 30-year-old edge rusher has notched a pair of sacks among his seven tackles through the Bears' first five games of the season.

  • Bears' Case Keenum: Takes over after Bagent benching

    Keenum completed 11 of 18 passes for 108 yards, zero touchdowns and one interception while adding a four-yard carry during the Bears' 31-7 loss to the Packers on Sunday. He also lost a fumble.

    Head coach Ben Johnson pulled the plug on Tyson Bagent after the former threw his second interception of the day late in the third quarter. Keenum threw a pick of his own on his first drive under center on a pass that was intended for Rome Odunze, and the veteran QB was strip-sacked later in the fourth quarter. During Monday's press conference, head coach Ben Johnson was mum on whether Keenum, Bagent or Caleb Williams (hamstring) would take snaps with the first-team offense during Week 6 prep, so the Bears' starting QB situation is muddy ahead of their road game against the Falcons on Oct. 18.

  • Bears' Tyson Bagent: Role uncertain for Week 3

    Head coach Ben Johnson said Monday that a decision hasn't been made regarding whether Bagent, Case Keenum or Caleb Williams (hamstring) will take reps with the first-team offense during the Bears' first Week 6 practice Wednesday, Sean Hammond of the Chicago Tribune reports.

    Williams will take back the starting job once fully healthy, but after missing the Bears' last three games due to a Grade 2 right hamstring strain, it's not yet clear if he'll be ready to direct the offense Week 6 in Atlanta. Bagent has started the last two games, but after managing the Bears to a 23-12 win over the Jets in Week 4, he regressed badly in a 31-7 loss to the Packers in Week 5. The 26-year-old completed just 12 of 21 passes for 87 yards and two interceptions before being benched in favor of Case Keenum in the fourth quarter. As a result of the poor outing, Bagent could be at risk of dropping all the way to third on the depth chart this week if Williams is cleared to play.
