Bears RB Kyle Monangai Soft-Tissue Injury Expected to Be Short-Term
Chicago Bears running back Kyle Monangai is dealing with a soft-tissue injury that head coach Ben Johnson said should be on the shorter side.
What happened
Kyle Monangai missed multiple early training-camp practices with an undisclosed issue. On Monday, Ben Johnson clarified it is a soft-tissue injury the team is managing day-by-day and expects to resolve relatively quickly. Monangai was spotted back on the field in pads during Monday's session.
Fantasy impact
Monangai remains the clear RB2 behind D'Andre Swift. The short-term nature of the injury should not alter his handcuff or flex value in most formats. Continue monitoring participation, but this does not appear to open a significant opportunity for other Bears backs.
