The Chicago Bears' quarterback situation appears bleak for their Week 3 game against the Philadelphia Eagles. Quarterback Caleb Williams is nursing a hamstring injury sustained during their Week 2 loss to the Minnesota Vikings. Backup quarterback Tyson Bagent was also placed in the concussion protocol earlier in the week. Neither Williams nor Bagent took part in Friday's practice, joining four others who skipped the session.
The team's Friday injury report listed Williams with a hamstring injury, Bagent with a concussion, OL Joe Thuney with rest, and QB Caleb Williams with a hamstring injury as well as LB Noah Sewell with a limited Achilles injury, DB Tyrique Stevenson with a limited hamstring, and DL Shemar Turner with a limited knee injury. RB Kyle Monangai is fully fit to play.
If Williams and Bagent are unable to play in the "Monday Night Football" matchup against the Eagles, the Bears will start veteran backup Case Keenum, who has a wealth of NFL experience with 11 years under his belt. Keenum has appeared in 80 games (66 starts) in his career and has not taken the field since the 2023-24 season with the Houston Texans.
However, he remains on active rosters for both the 2024-25 and 2025-26 seasons despite not playing any games.
