Chicago Bears gearing up for Philadelphia Eagles without QB Caleb Williams or backup Tyson Bagent
Backup Chicago Bears quarterback Tyson Bagent returned to Halas Hall without practicing on Friday, and starter Caleb Williams also remains out. The Bears will likely play the Philadelphia Eagles on Monday night with third-string quarterback Case Keenum taking the snaps. Williams has a hamstring injury and Bagent is out with a concussion.
The Chicago Bears are preparing to face the Philadelphia Eagles in an upcoming Monday night game, but without their two starting quarterbacks. Caleb Williams, the team's starter, is nursing a hamstring injury, while backup Tyson Bagent is sidelined with a concussion. As a result, third-string quarterback Case Keenum will take the field for the Bears.
Keenum, who hasn't played an NFL game since 2023, will be unfamiliar with the Eagles' zone-based defensive schemes. However, Bears offensive coordinator Press Taylor believes Keenum is a suitable choice to handle the challenge. The Bears will have one extra day to prepare due to the Monday night kickoff, but they still face a formidable opponent.
Running back Kyle Monangai has returned for a full practice, contributing to the team's preparations despite his earlier missed practices due to a knee injury.
