Bears injury report...

DNP: T.J. Edwards, Josh Blackwell, Dominique Robinson, Joe Thuney (rest)

Limited: Kevin Byard, Roschon Johnson, D.J. Moore, Rome Odunze

Full: Luther Burden, Cole Kmet, Kyle Monangai, D'Andre Swift, Amen Ogbongbemiga

Related Players: Kyle Monangai, Colston Loveland

The Bears will have quite the decision(s) on their hands if Swift and Kmet are available for Week 10.

Monangai has looked absolutely fantastic, while Loveland just had a game-winning, 58-yard touchdown reception. Chicago probably can't put the genie back in the bottle with Loveland, who should be considered a top-15 TE option, while both Swift and Monagai could both be low-end RB2 options if the veteran really is back to full health.

Bears RB D'Andre Swift was limited in today's practice with a groin injury after being a full participant yesterday in what was actually a walk-through and estimated participation. More info tomorrow on how he responds.

Could we actually get to see run out of Roschon Johnson in the year 2025? Seems possible but unlikely, as Monangai is the only other option that has seen semi-meaningful snaps in the Bears offense. The rookie will be an interesting RB3/4 option if Swift is forced out of Week 7.

Bears D'Andre Swift (hip), TE Colston Loveland (hip) and CB Kyler Gordon (hamstring) are all listed as questionable for Sunday.

Roschon Johnson has been a complete non-factor through three weeks, so it would be surprising if rookie Monangai didn't take over a huge role if Swift were to miss. As it stands, consider Swift an RB3 unless he ends up missing action.

After missing Wednesday's practice, DT Grady Jarrett (right knee) was limited.

RB D'Andre Swift (quad) was limited for second straight day and WR Jahdae Walker (ankle) was upgraded to full participant status.

Swift has continued his run as arguably the least efficient starting running back in the league, so it's hard to imagine what he'll look like if he's limited in any way in Week 3. Regardless, he remains an RB3 option despite his shortcomings as long as the Bears are fine with giving him 15-20 opportunities a game. Monangai should be a priority stash in any league where you have the room to add him.

Bears RB Roschon Johnson, who met with reporters after Tuesday's practice, was held out today with a foot injury.

Hopefully this is just a minor setback, as Johnson had been seeing some work with the 1's in training camp, along with Swift. If Johnson is healthy by Week 1, there's a good chance he's being undervalued as a late-round option as a goal-line option with pass-catching opportunities.

Roschon Johnson feels like a lock to be the Bears' short yardage/goal-line running back again this year, but also on third down (where he was utilized on 51% of offensive snaps in 2024). "I think it'll just help us out when we get in those tough games, when we get in those situations where we really need to home something in and scheme something up," Roschon Johnson said. "I think the playbook is definitely detailed enough for us to do that."

This kinda squashes any hype surrounding Monangai, but as a seventh-round rookie, those expectations should have been tempered anyway. We could still see him rotated in, and Swift is still the No. 1 option, but this opens up some fantasy goodness for Johnson, who is being taken deep in the double-digit rounds, but could be an RB3/4 if the Bears offense gets rolling. We currently have him ranked as a low-end RB4.

D'Andre Swift was not listed among the Bears inactives for Monday Night Football.

It's a tough matchup for Swift who should see a nice workload against the Vikings at least. Over the last three games, Swift hasn't gone over 40 yards rushing, averaging over 12 carries in that three-game span. He's also averaged a little over two receptions the last three games. Back on Nov. 24, Swift ran for 30 yards and had three catches for 35 yards against the Vikings. Johnson is inactive which leaves Homer and Evans behind Swift.

QUESTIONABLE
D.J. Moore
D'Andre Swift

Related Players: Travis Homer, Keenan Allen, Rome Odunze

Is it Travis Homer season? It certainly seems possible, and he should be snatched up just in case for teams desperate at the RB position.

Allen and Odunze would both get a hefty bump to their floor outcomes if Moore were to miss, as well.

D'Andre Swift is questionable to play Vikings with a groin injury, though he was limited Thursday and a full participant on Friday.

Keenan Allen is questionable with an ankle injury. He was limited on Friday, his first day on the participation report.

Separate reports called Swift "very likely" to play, but this is seemingly a new issue for Allen.

If Keenan were to miss Week 12, it would boost the floor of all pass-catchers, namely Moore, Oduzne, and Cole Kmet. Moore + Odunze would sneak closer to WR2 territory than their low-end WR3 designations they have with a healthy Allen.

Per Bears head coach Matt Eberflus: Ryan Bates remains in the concussion protocol. Elijah Hicks (ankle) and D'Andre Swift (groin) won't practice.

Teven Jenkins will be limited.

This is definitely a situation to keep an eye on, as Johnson would have a huge workload if Swift were to miss Week 12. Homer has three rush attempts and zero targets on the year.
