The Chicago Bears will be without running back Kyle Monangai for their Week 5 game against the Green Bay Packers due to a toe turf injury. Head coach Ben Johnson confirmed Monangai's absence on Friday after his injury was found to be more serious than initially believed. Monangai is currently in a boot and will not practice today.
ESPN's Jeremy Fowler reported earlier that Monangai could face an uncertain recovery timeline over the next 1-2 weeks. Monangai, who has rushed for 324 yards through the first four games, ranks seventh in the NFL. This setback highlights additional challenges for the Bears, as they are also without starting quarterback Caleb Williams, who suffered a Grade 2 hamstring strain during their Week 2 loss to the Minnesota Vikings.
The Bears will aim to secure their fourth victory of the season when they host the Packers at Lambeau Field on Sunday at 1 p.m. ET on FOX.
