The Chicago Bears may be heading into their biggest game of the young season without the running back who just delivered their most impressive rushing performance of 2026.

Kyle Monangai hasn't practiced this week after rushing for 146 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 23-12 win over the New York Jets. He's dealing with a thumb and turf toe injury.

That's concerning enough.
