The Chicago Bears’ quarterback situation is up in the air going into the team’s Week 3 matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles on Monday Night Football. Case Keenum has been taking QB1 snaps at practice this week while Caleb Williams sat out with a hamstring injury and Tyson Bagent in concussion protocol. But an update on Bagent could throw a wrench in the works.
The Tribune’s Phillip Thompson shares that Bears Head Coach Ben Johnson says QB2 is out of concussion protocol as part of a collection of updates before Saturday’s practice:
Bears HC Ben Johnson Says QB Tyson Bagent has been cleared from concussion protocol; also QB Caleb Williams won't practice but K Cairo Santos will; CB Tyrique Stevenson progressing more than anticipated.

It will be interesting to see how much Tyson Bagent practices on Saturday. A “full” participation designation on the afternoon injury report could suggest Bagent is available for MNF. Anything less will make me think Keenum will be QB1 in Chicago’s first primetime game of 2026. What a late-in-the-game plot twist.
Part of me wonders how this will affect Eagles Defensive Coordinator Vic Fangio’s game prep. But part of me knows Fangio probably has contingency plans for his contingency plans. That guy is as prepared as any defensive coordinator in the league.

Stevenson was upgraded to a limited participant in Friday’s practice. I’m open to the possibility of Stevenson being a full go on Saturday. It would be nice to have a full deck of cornerbacks for Mondy’s game. As for Santos, he will also practice on Saturday. Maybe I’ll be able to exhale and not worry about the kicking game going into Monday. Stay tuned.
