Bears Beat: QB decision may take all week

Dec 01, 2020

When it comes to the Bears’ quarterback situation and who plays next against the Lions at Soldier Field on Sunday, don’t be surprised if coach Matt Nagy plays it out all week as he tried to do last week.

This week should include some legitimate intrigue. Nick Foles has a chance to practice in some capacity as his hip improves, while Mitch Trubisky seemingly did enough for the Bears to seriously consider giving him another start.

Fantasy Impact:

The story makes points on why both QBs could end up the starter. The author said Foles might not start against the Lions but we probably haven't seen the last of him this season. The Bears are desperate for wins and that might mean another quarterback switch is needed. So there could be a short leash for Trubisky.

TE Evan Engram out for the season. Surgery coming on labrum in shoulder.

Related Players: Brenton Strange, Luke Farrell, Josiah Deguara

Fantasy Impact:

Bummer for Engram, who will finish the season as the TE16 with 7.3 half-PPR PPG in nine weeks.

It's unlikely that Strange pops up as a TE streamer through the remainder of the season, with no more byes on the horizon.

Chiefs WR Hollywood Brown's practice window to open "Friday or Monday"

Chiefs WR Hollywood Brown has received final clearance to practice, paving the way for him to play before the regular season ends.

Brown, who is recovering from surgery to repair his SC joint, should have his window opened Friday or Monday. The team will be cautious.

Fantasy Impact:

If Brown were cleared by Week 17, he would be incredibly tough to start in pretty much any sort of fantasy league with Championships on the line. However, he could be an interesting click for Playoff-only leagues if he can ramp up in time.

Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker misses second straight practice

For a second straight day today, Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker III didn’t practice due to his calf injury.

Related Players: Zach Charbonnet, Kenny McIntosh

Fantasy Impact:

Looks like things should be cleared out for Charbonnet once again in what could be a very close game against the Packers. If Walker misses Week 15, fire Charbs up as a high-end RB2.
