Chicago Bears face Philadelphia Eagles amid Caleb Williams injury
The Chicago Bears will face the Philadelphia Eagles in a Monday Night Football matchup at Soldier Field, marked by significant quarterback uncertainty for Chicago. Starting quarterback Caleb Williams has been ruled out due to a Grade 2 hamstring injury, which is expected to sideline him for three to four weeks.
Chicago's quarterback situation remains fluid. Tyson Bagent, who recently cleared concussion protocol, is listed as questionable. Veteran Case Keenum is expected to start if Bagent is not cleared to play. The Bears' offense, which leads the league in rushing yards per game, will rely heavily on its ground game featuring D’Andre Swift and Kyle Monangai.
The undefeated Philadelphia Eagles (2-0) enter the game as road favorites. While the Eagles' offense has shown some inconsistency, their defense has been effective, allowing only 16 total points in the first two games. Philadelphia also faces roster adjustments, with tight end Dallas Goedert and wide receiver Hollywood Brown ruled out, leading to the elevation of Zach Ertz from the practice squad.
