Bears Set Keenum to Start Against Eagles

The Chicago Bears will start veteran Case Keenum against the Philadelphia Eagles on Monday night, with Tyson Bagent serving as his backup despite clearing concussion protocol. Chicago chose Keenum because Bagent missed key practices while recovering and had less time to prepare for the game plan. Caleb Williams is out with a Grade 2 hamstring injury that has been reported to require roughly three to four weeks of recovery, though the Bears have not placed him on injured reserve.
