The Chicago Bears have had some terrible luck in the injury department this camp. The latest bad news arrives in the form of a Kyle Monangai injury update from ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler, who reported this afternoon that running back Kyle Monangai suffered a hyperextended knee and is expected to miss “multiple weeks.”
Monangai exited Sunday’s practice early after injuring his knee. Word out of Halas Hall was that the team believed he avoided a significant injury and that everything seemed structurally sound, but an MRI scheduled for today would provide more clarity.
According to Fowler, that MRI revealed a hyperextended knee—the same injury teammate Coby Bryant suffered during the first week of camp. Bryant’s hyperextension required surgery, which took place on August 7, and will keep the safety out of the Bears lineup for 4-6 months.

As for now (we will probably hear from Ben Johnson tomorrow), Monangai appears to have avoided the same extent and fate as Bryant. Still, we can effectively consider Monangai’s training camp and preseason over at this point.
Chicago has dealt with numerous injuries to key players during camp, including Braxton Jones, Zavion Thomas, Luther Burden III, and Montez Sweat. Then there’s Kyler Gordon, who is still to make his debut at camp as he continues to rehab a soft-tissue injury that has hampered him throughout the summer and cost him all organized team activities to this point.
Chicago did get some good news on the injury front on Sunday, with Jones, Sweat, and Ozzy Trapilo all returning to the practice field—Trapilo was activated from the PUP list on Sunday, marking an extraordinary comeback from a torn patellar tendon in Chicago’s Wild Card round victory over the Green Bay Packers in January.
All in all, Bryant and now Monangai, to a lesser degree, are the only big names in line to miss significant time, but with injuries mounting and still three weeks of camp and the preseason remaining, it has been disconcerting.
Burden is expected to return before Week 1, and Monangai’s “multiple weeks” timeline could mean the same.
With Monangai shelved for the remainder of camp and the preseason, Roschon Johnson and Salvon Ahmed will see increased workloads for the immediate future. Ahmed was a preseason standout from Saturday, totaling 72 yards, most of which came on his 49-yard touchdown—a second-and-4 screen pass from Case Keenum, where he took the pass deep in Chicago’s backfield, hit the left sideline and cut back inside before blowing by a group of Cleveland defenders.

Johnson is entering his fourth season in Chicago, but injuries limited him to two carries in seven games, while Ahmed hasn’t played in a regular-season game since 2023, when he was with the Miami Dolphins. Ahmed was an undrafted free agent who caught on with the Dolphins in 2020. He rushed for 593 yards and five touchdowns in 38 games with Miami from 2020-23.
