Fantasy Impact: Monangai missed a second-straight practice on Thursday. He's still dealing with two different injuries at this point, and they may prove to be enough of an issue to complicate his availability for Week 5. He could be limited or sidelined against the Packers on Sunday, but fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status closely over the next 24 hours, as we should know his official injury designation sometime after practice on Friday.

Tyson Bagent will start next week against Green Bay, per Head Coach Ben Johnson. (Source: Adam Schefter on X)

Fantasy Impact: Bagent had himself a nice day against the Jets, even without throwing a touchdown. He simply wasn't asked to do much against a Jets team that lacked any bite. Against the Packers, however, you would expect tougher competition, so Bagent could have a better stat line next week.

The Bears D/ST allowed 12 points while notching three sacks in a 23-12 win over the Jets in Week 4.

Fantasy Impact: Chicago's defense turned in an excellent performance for the second straight week. They got sacks from Devin Bush, Dayo Odeyingbo, and Austin Booker in the win. Chicago will now prepare to take on the Packers in Week 5.

Colston Loveland caught six of his nine targets for 57 yards in a 23-12 win over the Jets in Week 4.

Fantasy Impact: Loveland turned in his best game of the season, leading the Bears in catches and targets. It was a welcome sight after he had just five catches through the first three games. The second-year tight end now has 11 catches for 91 scoreless yards in four games. He will be on the TE1 radar in Week 5 against Green Bay.

Kalif Raymond caught both of his targets for six yards in a 23-12 win over the Jets in Week 4.

Fantasy Impact: Raymond came back to earth in the win after he had been a big part of the Chicago passing attack over the first three games of the season. The veteran wideout now has 21 catches for 220 yards and one touchdown through four games. He will be on the flex radar in Week 5 vs. the Packers.

Rome Odunze caught six of his seven targets for 94 yards in a 23-12 win over the Jets in Week 4.

Fantasy Impact: Odunze led the Bears in all receiving categories in what was his best game of the season. The veteran receiver has now caught 14 passes for 233 yards and no touchdowns through four games. Odunze will be a low-end WR3 in fantasy in Week 5 vs. the Packers.

Luther Burden III caught four of his six targets for 63 yards and added an 11-yard run in a 23-12 win over the Jets in Week 4.

Fantasy Impact: Burden got off to a fast start, catching three of his four passes in the first quarter, but was held to just one catch the rest of the way. He has been trending up, but fantasy managers are still waiting for a blow-up game from the second-year receiver. He will be a high-end WR3 in fantasy in Week 5 vs. the Packers.

Fantasy Impact: Gordon was able to take part in practice in a full capacity all week, but the Bears want to take the cautious approach with his recovery and are opting to let him sit out for another game in Week 4. Chicago's secondary will see a nice boost whenever he's back in the lineup for them.

Case Keenum completed 24 of his 34 passes for 247 yards and two touchdowns while rushing for six yards and a touchdown on four carries in a 27-7 win over the Eagles in Week 3.

Fantasy Impact: Keenum got the call with Caleb Williams (hamstring) and Tyson Bagent (concussion) both ailing and looked good in the Monday night win over Philly. He completed touchdown passes to Luther Burden III and Kalif Raymond in the contest. Bagent will likely be ready to return to action in Week 4 against the Jets, which will push Keenum to the backup role.

Cole Kmet failed to catch his only target in the Bears' 9-3 loss to the Minnesota Vikings in Week 2.

Fantasy Impact: Kmet has struggled to make a sizeable impact in the Chicago offense to begin the season, finishing with three targets or less in each of the first two games. The tight end remains difficult to trust for fantasy managers ahead of a Week 3 contest against the Philadelphia Eagles.
