The Story in 60 Seconds

Chicago Bears running back Kyle Monangai will miss his third consecutive game due to a toe injury as the team prepares to face the New England Patriots in Week 7. The Bears hope Monangai can return in Week 8 after previously dealing with thumb and toe issues that placed him in a walking boot.

Without Monangai, Chicago's ground game has averaged just 89.5 yards over the past two games, relying on D'Andre Swift and Roschon Johnson. Anthony Miller writes that the Bears need Swift, Johnson, and quarterback Caleb Williams to elevate the running attack against a Patriots defense allowing 91.8 rushing yards per game.
