Bears QB situation unsettled as Bagent enters concussion protocol
The short version
- Tyson Bagent is in the NFL concussion protocol, per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.
- Starter Caleb Williams is battling a hamstring injury and his status is unclear.
- Third-stringer Case Keenum could start when the Bears host the Eagles on Monday.
Chicago may turn to third-string quarterback Case Keenum against Philadelphia on Monday night with Caleb Williams and Tyson Bagent both ailing.
The Chicago Bears are facing a quarterback shortage heading into Monday night's matchup with the Philadelphia Eagles, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.
Rapoport reported Tuesday that backup Tyson Bagent has been diagnosed with a concussion and is now going through the league's concussion protocol. His availability for the Philadelphia game is in doubt as a result.
Starter Caleb Williams is also dealing with a hamstring injury, and his status for the game has not been resolved. If neither Williams nor Bagent can play, Chicago would turn to third-string quarterback Case Keenum under center.
