Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams will not play Monday against the Philadelphia Eagles, but we have new insight into how long he’ll be out.
According to a new report from ESPN’s Adam Schefter and NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, Williams was diagnosed with a Grade 2 strain of his right hamstring following last week’s loss to the Minnesota Vikings.
That injury has a recovery timetable of approximately three-to-four weeks, according to the report.
Bears head coach Ben Johnson had said he considered Williams “week-to-week” with the injury, but had not initially ruled him out for Monday’s game against Philadelphia.
Williams did not practice with the Bears this week at Halas Hall, and was ruled out of the game on the team’s final injury report that was released on Saturday.
Quarterback Tyson Bagent, who had been in the NFL’s concussion protocol this week and had missed Friday’s practice, cleared that protocol and was a full participant in Saturday’s workout at Halas Hall. He was listed as questionable for the game against the Eagles.
Case Keenum had taken first-team reps with the Bears on Friday, and will likely be the team’s backup if Bagent can go on Monday night.
As for Williams, the recovery timetable isn’t a hard and fast schedule for his return, but if he does end up missing multiple games, he could return against the Green Bay Packers on October 11, or against the Atlanta Falcons on October 18.
The Bears’ schedule could impact his return date as well, as the Falcons game is followed closely by a Thursday night contest against the New England Patriots on October 22.
