Monangai (knee) is not listed on the Bears' Week 1 injury report Wednesday.
After missing a bunch of training camp and the entire preseason with a hyperextended knee, Monangai is ready to roll for the games that count. He should fill a similar role as last season behind D'Andre Swift, who out-carried Monangai 32 to 21 in the Bears' two playoff games. Monangai is one of the premier fantasy bench stashes at running back, and he could have some standalone value during bye weeks.
