Chicago Bears

Braxton Jones

OT

Jones suffered a knee injury last Monday versus the Eagles and is now required to sit out at least four contests while on IR. Theo Benedet is poised to take over as Chicago's starting left tackle during Jones' absence.

Case Keenum

QB

While Caleb Williams (hamstring) was out and while Bagent was limited to the backup role in Week 3 after missing two practices due to a concussion, Keenum drew the start in the Bears' 27-7 win over the Eagles on Monday, when he threw for 247 yards and two touchdowns to go along with a rushing score. Though Williams (hamstring) will miss a second straight game Sunday, Keenum has ceded most of the first-team reps to Bagent during the week of practice. Head coach Ben Johnson has yet to officially announce a Week 4 starter, but all signs point to Keenum serving as Bagent's backup.

Tyson Bagent

QB

Bagent was the backup to Case Keenum in Week 3 against Philadelphia with Caleb Williams (hamstring) sidelined due to a hamstring injury. That arrangement likely had something to do with Bagent coming off a concussion, which resulted in Keenum handling much of the first-team reps in practice during the week. It appeared Keenum may have seized the starting job for Week 4 (with Williams still out of action) after leading Chicago to a Week 3 win against the Eagles while throwing for 247 yards and two touchdowns, but Bagent's work with the first-team offense this week suggests the script is flipping again. With that said, Johnson has refused so far to announce a Week 4 starter at QB, so it can't yet be said for certain what roles Keenum and Bagent will have this weekend.

Cam Lewis

CB

Lewis opened Week 4 prep with back-to-back limited practices before not practicing Friday. The DNP indicates that he experienced a setback in his recovery from a leg injury that he sustained during the Bears' Week 3 win over the Eagles. Malik Muhammad is poised to take on a larger role defensively in the likely event that Lewis is not cleared to play Sunday.
