Ben Johnson: We think Kyle Monangai is going to be OK

Chicago Bears head coach Ben Johnson downplayed concerns about running back Kyle Monangai’s thumb injury, suggesting it may not sideline him for the team’s upcoming matchup. Monangai, who leads the Bears in rushing yards (324) and yards per carry (5.4), is expected to recover quickly, with Johnson calling it a minor setback.

Meanwhile, starter D’Andre Swift trails slightly with 311 yards and a 4.5-yard average per attempt. The Bears will face the Green Bay Packers at Lambeau Field this Sunday, with Monangai’s status remaining a day-to-day evaluation.
