Colston Loveland Colston Loveland Back in action Monday Mon, Oct 13, 2025, 5:51 PM Loveland (hip) is listed as active Monday at Washington. Analysis: Loveland last suited up during a Week 3 win against the Cowboys, when he injured his hip early on and was forced to miss the Bears' Week 4 victory at Las Vegas. Following the team's Week 5 bye, the rookie first-rounder followed up back-to-back limited sessions with a full practice Saturday, paving the way for his return to action. Loveland likely will continue to play a distant second to Cole Kmet in Chicago's pecking order at tight end moving forward.
Travis Homer Travis Homer Downgraded to out for MNF Mon, Oct 13, 2025, 4:34 PM Homer (calf) was downgraded to out for Monday night's game against the Commanders. Analysis: Homer's season debut will have to wait at least another week, as his next chance to suit up will be Sunday against the Saints. Homer will likely contribute mainly on special teams when he does return to action.
Travis Homer Travis Homer Questionable to play Monday Sat, Oct 11, 2025, 5:53 PM Homer (calf) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Commanders. Analysis: Homer started the season on injured reserve due to a calf injury that he suffered in preseason action in August. He was a full participant in practice this past week, but he would need to be activated from IR in order to have a chance at playing in Washington on Monday. Once he's cleared to return, Homer could be deployed on special teams as a returner while providing depth in the Bears' backfield.
Colston Loveland Colston Loveland Questionable for Monday Sat, Oct 11, 2025, 2:16 PM Loveland (hip) is listed as questionable for Monday's game in Washington. Analysis: Since injuring his hip Week 3, Loveland was inactive Week 4 and then was limited in the first two practices coming out of the Bears' Week 5 bye, but Saturday's full practice has him trending in the right direction ahead of Monday's 8:15 p.m. ET kickoff. The rookie first-round pick has hauled in three of six targets for 43 yards through three contests to begin his career.
Colston Loveland Colston Loveland Limited in practice again Fri, Oct 10, 2025, 2:31 PM Loveland (hip) was a limited practice participant Friday. Analysis: Loveland was also limited Thursday, following a Week 4 absence and Week 5 bye. He'll likely just be Chicago's No. 2 tight end if he ends up playing Monday night at Washington.
Kyle Monangai Kyle Monangai Upgrades to full practice Fri, Oct 10, 2025, 2:30 PM Monangai (thigh) was a full practice participant Friday. Analysis: The rookie came out of a Week 5 bye listed with a new injury, but he'll apparently be fine for Monday's game at Washington, likely filling his usual role as the No. 2 running back. Monangai took 20 touches for 85 yards over the first four weeks of the season, failing to make a move despite D'Andre Swift's mediocre results as the lead back.
Travis Homer Travis Homer Gets in full practice Thu, Oct 9, 2025, 7:13 PM Homer (calf) logged a full practice Thursday. Analysis: Homer remains on injured reserve but was designated for return earlier this week, opening his 21-day practice window. Homer doesn't have much of an offensive role in Chicago when healthy.
Kyle Monangai Kyle Monangai DNP with thigh injury Thu, Oct 9, 2025, 7:12 PM Monangai (thigh) did not practice Thursday. Analysis: It's Monangai's first appearance on the injury report this season. The seventh-round rookie has carried the ball just 17 times for 62 scoreless yards through four games, adding three catches for 23 yards on five targets. Monangai is little more than an end-of-bench stash in fantasy.
Colston Loveland Colston Loveland Limited to begin Week 6 prep Thu, Oct 9, 2025, 4:10 PM Loveland (hip) practiced on a limited basis Thursday. Analysis: After suffering a hip injury Week 3 against the Cowboys, Loveland managed just one limited practice before the Bears made him inactive Week 4 versus the Raiders. Even with the benefit of a Week 5 bye, the rookie first-round pick still is operating with a cap on his reps, but he'll have two more opportunities to log a full practice ahead of Monday's game at Washington.
Travis Homer Travis Homer Designated for return from IR Tue, Oct 7, 2025, 1:21 PM Homer (calf) was designated for return from injured reserve by the Bears on Tuesday, Brad Biggs of the Chicago Tribune reports. Analysis: Once he's cleared to play, Homer will be making his 2025 season debut. The veteran running back and special-teams player appeared in 10 regular-season contests last season but carries zero fantasy value.
Colston Loveland Colston Loveland Takes part in practice Tuesday Tue, Sep 30, 2025, 4:14 PM Loveland (hip) was spotted on the field during the media-access portion of Tuesday's practice session, Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com reports. Analysis: After he managed just one limited practice in Week 4 prep due to the hip injury, Loveland ended up sitting out Sunday's 25-24 win over the Raiders. The rookie first-round pick appears to be trending in the right direction, however, as he took the field for an unofficial practice Tuesday during the team's Week 5 bye. With extra time to heal up from the hip issue, Loveland should be on track to return to action for the Bears' Week 6 matchup with the Commanders on Oct. 13.
Luther Burden Luther Burden Targeted twice in victory Sun, Sep 28, 2025, 10:23 PM Burden recorded minus-four yards on two receptions in the Bears' 25-24 win over the Raiders on Sunday. Analysis: Aside from Burden's 101-yard effort in Week 3 against the woeful Dallas defense, he has a total of minus-three yards in his other three games. Until his role in the offense grows, Burden's floor makes him difficult to place in fantasy lineups.
Olamide Zaccheaus Olamide Zaccheaus Leads team in receptions Sun, Sep 28, 2025, 10:22 PM Zaccheaus caught five of six targets for 41 yards in the Bears' 25-24 win over the Raiders on Sunday. Analysis: Zaccheaus recorded his second game with at least 41 yards this season. However, the receiver also has games with 12 and 24 yards. The veteran will remain a solid-floor PPR option unless his role increases.
Cole Kmet Cole Kmet Leads team in targets Sun, Sep 28, 2025, 10:21 PM Kmet caught three of nine targets for 46 yards in the Bears' 25-24 win over the Raiders on Sunday. Analysis: After Kmet was targeted a total of seven times in three games, his nine targets against Las Vegas was likely a result of Chicago trying to use quick passes to keep the Las Vegas pass rush off of Caleb Williams. Despite the busy afternoon, Kmet will need to string a couple of games with high volume to be considered a reliable fantasy option.
Kyle Monangai Kyle Monangai Change-of-pace work in victory Sun, Sep 28, 2025, 10:21 PM Monangai rushed four times for 18 yards in the Bears' 25-24 win over the Raiders on Sunday. Analysis: Monangai has seen his rushing attempts fall in each of the last two weeks, and he's been limited to 18-36 yards in the last three games. Unless D'Andre Swift misses time, Monangai will be a low-floor fantasy option.
DJ Moore DJ Moore Pedestrian outing Sunday Sun, Sep 28, 2025, 10:15 PM Moore brought in four of five targets for 38 yards in Sunday's 25-24 win over Las Vegas. Analysis: Moore took a back seat to Rome Odunze (4-69-1) yet again as a changing of the guard appears to have taken place in Chicago's receiver room. The 28-year-old Moore has taken on more of a complementary role alongside the Bears' upstart receivers, resulting in fantasy totals below what managers had bargained for heading into drafts. Moore still possesses a consistent role in new head coach Ben Johnson's offense, garnering five to six targets on a weekly basis. With tempered expectations, Moore can still provide flex value out of Chicago's upcoming bye week when play resumes against the Commanders in Week 6.
D'Andre Swift D'Andre Swift Grinds out solid score Sunday Sun, Sep 28, 2025, 8:48 PM Swift (hip) took 14 carries for 38 yards and a touchdown while catching four of six targets for 22 yards in Sunday's 25-24 win over Las Vegas. Analysis: Swift was limited during the practice week with a hip injury that had him listed as questionable leading up to Sunday's kickoff. The veteran starter suited up and rewarded fantasy managers with his second trip to the end zone in four games this season. The Bears placed no restrictions on the 26-year-old, handing him 14 of its 18 running back carries in the win. Swift has been generating just enough value on a weekly basis to warrant flex consideration in most formats. Managers will have to find a fill-in for Swift in Week 5 with the Bears on a bye, making Oct. 13 the next time we see Chicago's starting RB in action.
Caleb Williams Caleb Williams Mixed results in comeback win Sun, Sep 28, 2025, 8:30 PM Williams completed 22 of 37 pass attempts for 212 yards, one touchdown and one interception while taking eight carries for 13 yards in Sunday's 25-24 win over Las Vegas. Analysis: Williams also put two balls on the ground, but he was fortunately able to recover both of his fumbles. The developing sophomore was coming off of his best game of the season against the Cowboys, but he reverted to the inconsistent version we saw in Weeks 1 and 2 despite earning his team the win Sunday. We have seen flashes of brilliance from Williams in new head coach Ben Johnson's scheme, but he still isn't polished enough to be relied upon regularly in fantasy. With the Bears entering a bye week, Williams' next action will come on Oct. 13 against the Commanders on Monday Night Football.
Rome Odunze Rome Odunze Scoring binge continues Sunday Sun, Sep 28, 2025, 7:51 PM Odunze had four receptions on eight targets for 69 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 25-24 win over the Raiders. Analysis: Odunze's scoring onslaught continued when he gutted the Raiders' secondary for a 27-yard touchdown on Chicago's first possession of the second half. The breakout fantasy star has now generated five touchdowns for managers across an impressive four-game scoring streak to kick off the season. Odunze's eight targets Sunday were on par with his 8.8 average through four weeks, giving managers a predictable WR1 asset as we near the quarter mark of the campaign. The talented sophomore will attempt to extend his scoring streak to five games when the Bears resume play against the Commanders on Oct. 13 following the team's upcoming bye week.
Colston Loveland Colston Loveland Inactive Sunday Sun, Sep 28, 2025, 2:09 PM Loveland (hip) is listed as inactive Sunday in Las Vegas. Analysis: Loveland made an early departure from last Sunday's win against the Cowboys due to a hip injury that didn't allow him to practice until Friday, when he was limited and given a questionable designation. He began to trend in the wrong direction for Week 4 after Adam Schefter of ESPN reported Saturday afternoon that Loveland wasn't expected to be available Sunday, which now has been confirmed. Cole Kmet (groin) is poised to handle most of the TE reps Sunday, with Durham Smythe and Stephen Carlson in reserve roles. Meanwhile, Loveland's next chance to suit up is Monday, Oct. 13 at Washington following a Week 5 bye.
