Kyle Monangai - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Listed as DNP on practice estimate Monangai (thumb/toe) was listed as a non-participant on Monday's estimated injury report.

Impact After missing the last two games due to thumb and turf toe injuries, Monangai wasn't able to participate in Monday's walkthrough, indicating that a third straight absence is possible this week. Head coach Ben Johnson told Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com on Friday that Monangai remains week-to-week but will avoid injured reserve, so if the running back is inactive Thursday against the Patriots, he may be aiming to return in Week 8 at Seattle on Monday, Nov. 2. As long as Monangai is sidelined, D'Andre Swift will lead the Bears backfield, with Roschon Johnson in a complemtary role.

Out for Week 6 Monangai (thumb/toe) was ruled out for Sunday's game in Atlanta.

Impact Monangai is tending to a turf toe injury that now will force a second absence in a row. With Monangai on the sidelines, Roschon Johnson will serve as the complementary RB behind starter D'Andre Swift, but such a role equated to 10 touches for 40 yards from scrimmage in last Sunday's loss at Green Bay. Meanwhile, Monangai's next chance for game action is next Thursday against the Patriots.

Will avoid injured reserve Monangai (toe), per head coach Ben Johnson, remains week-to-week but is "trending in the right direction" and will avoid injured reserve, Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Johnson's comments suggest Monangai could miss more time, but they also indicate he is not facing an extended absence. His status for Sunday's matchup with the Falcons will officially be revealed when the Bears release their final injury report of the week later Friday.

Misses practice again Thursday Monangai (toe) was listed as a non-participant on Thursday's injury report.

Impact With Monangai now opening Week 6 prep with back-to-back missed sessions, his status for Sunday's game remains in question. The Bears' Friday report should provide more clarity on his status going into Sunday's game against the Falcons. If Monangai is unable to go, look for D'Andre Swift to handle the bulk of the work while Roschon Johnson gets a slight bump in playing time.

Estimated as DNP on Wednesday Monangai (thumb/toe) was listed as a non-participant on Wednesday's practice estimate.

Impact Monangai technically is being listed with a pair of health concerns, but it's a turf toe injury that sidelined him this past Sunday at Green Bay and is threatening to keep him there for at least one more week. Fellow RB D'Andre Swift avoided the Bears' first Week 6 injury report entirely, so he's poised to be the team's clear lead runner for as long as Monangai is out.
