Bears Reveal Injury Designations for Two Key Offensive Targets
The Bears posted the injury designations for tight end Colston Loveland and running back Kyle Monangai.
The Chicago Bears are set to take on the Seattle Seahawks in a Monday Night Football matchup. This would be a significant victory for the 5-2 Bears, who are currently facing off against the reigning Super Bowl champions. The Bears had concerns about their offensive targets heading into the game, with tight end Colston Loveland listed as having a neck injury on the estimated injury report.
However, Loveland was able to participate fully during the week and was listed as a full participant on Saturday, indicating that his injury may not be as severe as initially feared.
Unfortunately, the Bears' injury situation took a turn for the worse with the announcement that running back Kyle Monangai will miss his fourth consecutive game due to a turf toe and thumb injury. Monangai has been a key contributor for the Bears, ranking second in rushing yards on the team with 324 yards on 60 carries, and scoring three touchdowns.
His absence is a significant blow to the Bears' offense, as the team had hoped to see him return soon. Coach Ben Johnson had previously stated that Monangai was not a candidate for the injured reserve list, as he was making progress. It remains to be seen whether Monangai will be available for the Bears' next game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers or if he will be rested until after the team's bye week in Week 10.
