The Story in 60 Seconds

The Chicago Bears have decided that backup quarterback Tyson Bagent will start against the Green Bay Packers in Week 5 at Lambeau Field. Starting quarterback Caleb Williams will sit out as he continues to recover from a hamstring injury suffered in Week 2, despite returning to practice in an official capacity on Friday.

Williams has resumed throwing but is still working up to running at full speed, giving him a realistic chance to return in Week 6 against the Atlanta Falcons. Meanwhile, Chicago will also be without running back Kyle Monangai on Sunday due to a turf toe injury.
