Fantasy Impact: Tyrique Stevenson led the way with five tackles, two interceptions, and four passes defended. Meanwhile, Gervon Dexter Sr. was responsible for 1.5 sacks. This unit will rank as a fringe top-16 fantasy option against the Packers in Week 18.

Robert Tonyan caught three of four passes for 40 yards during the Bears' 37-17 win over the Falcons in Week 17.

Fantasy Impact: Tonyan normally operates as the Bears' No. 2 tight end, but he saw increased opportunities on Sunday with Cole Kmet (knee) held to just 13 snaps and zero targets. The veteran likely won't replicate his solid showing if Kmet returns to a full workload in Week 18.

Tyler Scott turned five targets into two receptions for 15 yards during the Bears' 37-17 win over the Falcons in Week 17.

Fantasy Impact: After giving up 20 or more points in seven of its first nine games, Chicago has allowed 20 or fewer points in four of its last five games. The defensive improvement has been noticeable, keeping the offense in striking position, even if they struggle to capitalize. Over the same five-week span, the Bears have earned 14 sacks and 12 interceptions. The Bears also ran back their second defensive TD of the year.

Fantasy Impact: Blasingame has yet to do anything substantial for the Bears, failing to record a carry and seeing just one target in each of his last four games.
