Chicago Bears

Anthony Johnson Jr.

S

out

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.

D'Andre Swift

RB

Swift didn't practice Thursday due to a knee injury, which coach Ben Johnson chalked up Friday to the running back "still feeling the effects" from Monday Night Football, per Brad Biggs of the Chicago Tribune. After an uncapped session to end Week 4 prep, Swift is in the clear for Sunday's contest, looking to resume the 20.7 touches per game that he's handled through three contests this season.

Caleb Williams

QB

out

Dillon Thieneman

S

Thieneman picked off Andy Dalton on a pass intended for Dontayvion Wicks in the end zone, and the Bears' offense capitalized on the turnover with an 11-play, 69-yard drive that ended with a 29-yard field goal by Cairo Santos to extend Chicago's lead to 10-0. Thieneman has played every single defensive snap through the first three regular-season games of his NFL career, and his 15 solo tackles are tied for seventh in the league.

Kyler Gordon

CB

Since he began the regular season on Chicago's reserve/PUP list, Gordon won't be eligible to suit up for game action again until Week 5 at Green Bay. With that said, his current availability at practice is a strong indication he's on track to do just that. His status will be worth monitoring until he is officially activated.

Jayden Loving

DT

Ozzy Trapilo

OT

Jordan McFadden

G

Jamree Kromah

DE

Cairo Santos

PK

Santos made field goals from 29 yards and 48 yards in the contest. The kicker had a consistent night and now moves to 4-for-5 on field-goal attempts and a flawless 11-for-11 on PATs over three regular-season games in 2026.

Kyle Monangai

RB

The second-year back logged exactly half of D'Andre Swift's workload on the ground, with Monangai handling his third straight 10-carry total to open the season. The Rutgers product saw his efficiency take a notable dip for the second consecutive game following a stellar Week 1 where he averaged 10.0 yards per carry, yet Monangai's role as a fairly high-volume No. 2 back in Chicago's offense is safe. The lack of receiving work Monday night was a disappointment after Monangai posted a 4-35-0 line through the air in the first two games, but he'll have a chance to atone in what should be a favorable Week 4 home matchup against the Jets on Sunday.

Colston Loveland

TE

Head coach Ben Johnson appeared to make a concerted effort to get the ball into Loveland's hands Monday after the tight end's slow first two games, and that approach met with some success. While all three components of Loveland's receiving line qualified as season-high figures, the second-year pro's longest reception went for just 12 yards, and he was well behind the wideout trio of Kalif Raymond, Luther Burden and Rome Odunze in receiving yards. Loveland's chemistry with fill-in signal-caller Case Keenum was encouraging, however, and the duo should have a chance to continue working together in Sunday's Week 4 home matchup against the Jets.

Rome Odunze

WR

Odunze was relegated to a complementary role in the 20-point victory, finishing fourth in receptions and third in both receiving yards and targets for the Bears on a night in which Case Keenum filled in for Caleb Williams (hamstring) under center. While Odunze entered the season as the presumptive No. 1 receiver, veteran offseason addition Kalif Raymond, who had familiarity with head coach Ben Johnson's scheme from their mutual time with the Lions, has enjoyed an expanded role over the first three games while gathering in an impressive 19 of 21 targets. Conversely, Odunze is averaging a career-best 17.4 yards per reception but has a modest eight catches and no touchdowns through three games, numbers he'll look to boost during a Week 4 home matchup against the Jets on Sunday.

Luther Burden III

WR

The second-year wideout led the Bears in receptions and targets in the impressive win with totals that also qualified as season highs, while checking in second only to Kalif Raymond in receiving yards. Burden also scored his first touchdown of the season on a nifty shovel pass that he took eight yards to the house while breaking multiple tackles near the goal line to cap off Chicago's opening possession. Burden's ability to click with fill-in signal-caller Case Keenum bodes well for the receiver's fantasy prospects, considering Caleb Williams (hamstring) is still projected to miss several more games. Burden will look to carry over the momentum into a Week 4 home matchup against the Jets on Sunday.

Kalif Raymond

WR

Despite having three quarterbacks throwing him the ball in as many weeks, Raymond continues to be a top option for the Bears' receiving offense. The wide receiver was second in targets Monday night to only Luther Burden (11), who did not manage to exceed Raymond in yards. The returner's additional value on special teams just further adds to his offensive allure as the season continues.

Tyrique Stevenson Sr.

CB

Stevenson upgraded his participation level each day of the Bears' Week 3 prep. The cornerback went from a non-participant Thursday to a full participant in Saturday's session. Stevenson is all set to suit up for Sunday's contest as the starting outside cornerback opposite Jaylon Johnson.

Shemar Turner

DT

Turner suffered a torn ACL during Week 8 of last season but is now closer to making his return to the field. The 23-year-old was placed on the reserve/PUP list in August and will have to miss at least two more games as a result before he's eligible to return. Once healthy, Turner could contribute as a depth defensive lineman.

Noah Sewell

LB

Sewell began the 2026 campaign on the reserve/PUP list while working his way back from a torn Achilles. Although that means he is required to miss at least two more games, it appears he is moving in a positive direction toward a return. The 24-year-old most recently appeared in 13 regular-season games for Chicago during the 2025 campaign, amassing 59 total tackles and one forced fumble.

Sam Roush

TE

The rookie third-rounder did not record a target in the Bears' Week 1 win over the Panthers, but Roush hauled in a nine-yard pass from Caleb Williams (hamstring) late in the third quarter for the former's first NFL catch. Roush is firmly behind Colston Loveland and Cole Kmet on the depth chart, although those three tight ends, along with the other Bears pass catchers, will all see their scoring floors lowered if Case Keenum is the starting quarterback against the Eagles in Week 3 if Williams and Tyson Bagent (concussion) are both unable to play.

Devin Bush

LB

Bush played all 52 of Chicago's defensive snaps in Week 2, but he only managed four tackles, even against a run-heavy Minnesota attack. Managers relying on him for IDP production will be hoping for more in a Week 3 tilt versus the Eagles.

T.J. Edwards

LB

Edwards played on 100 percent of the Bears' defensive snaps for the second time in as many games to open the season. However, Edwards' tackle total remained modest, and he'll look to boost his production in a Week 3 matchup against the Eagles.
