Roschon Johnson
Roschon Johnson Slight usage in defeat
Sun, Nov 10, 2024, 8:38 PM
Johnson lost four yards on one rush and caught a five-yard pass in the Bears' 19-3 loss to the Patriots on Sunday.
Analysis: In the three games since Chicago's bye week, Johnson has handled nine touches for 28 yards and a touchdown. Unless the running back's role increases, Johnson will be difficult to trust in fantasy lineups.
Cole Kmet
Cole Kmet Another poor perfromance
Sun, Nov 10, 2024, 8:35 PM
Kmet caught two passes for 13 yards in the Bears' 19-3 loss to the Patriots on Sunday.
Analysis: After the Week 6 game, Kmet was one of the highest-scoring tight ends in fantasy. Since the Bears Week 7 bye, the tight end has accounted for three catches and 27 yards in three games. Despite the early-season success, Kmet will be a risky weekly fantasy option unless the Chicago offense gets back on track.
Rome Odunze
Rome Odunze Six targets in defeat
Sun, Nov 10, 2024, 8:32 PM
Odunze caught three passes for 23 yards in the Bears' 19-3 loss to the Patriots on Sunday.
Analysis: Odunze was showing signs of life after posting the second 100-yard game of his career last week. However, with Caleb Williams passing for just 120 yards against New England, there was little opportunity for any Chicago receiver to do well. Odunze is a rising star, but in the short term, he may be limited by the Bears offense.
Keenan Allen
Keenan Allen Leading receiver in Week 10 loss
Sun, Nov 10, 2024, 4:56 PM
Allen caught five of six targets for 44 yards in Sunday's 19-3 loss to the Patriots.
Analysis: While his production was modest, it was was enough to lead Chicago in catches and receiving yards, and the 44 yards were actually a season high for the former Charger. Injuries along the offensive line have completely sabotaged the Bears' offense -- Caleb Williams was sacked nine times Sunday -- but Allen's reliability as a possession receiver at least allows him to maintain a decent PPR floor. Unless the offensive line gets healthier though, it will be tough to rely on any part of the Chicago offense heading into a Week 11 rivalry game against Green Bay.
DJ Moore
DJ Moore Quiet in Sunday's loss
Sun, Nov 10, 2024, 4:51 PM
Moore caught three of six targets for 24 yards in Sunday's 19-3 loss to the Patriots. He added three rushing yards on his lone carry.
Analysis: Caleb Williams was sacked nine times on the day and had no time in the pocket behind an injury-ravaged offensive line, and as a result Moore's production suffered once again. Over the last four games, the star wideout has managed just a 13-104-0 line on 24 targets. Unless the offensive line gets healthier, Moore and the rest of the Bears' skill players will be tough to trust heading into a Week 11 rivalry game against the Packers.
D'Andre Swift
D'Andre Swift Tough sledding in Week 10
Sun, Nov 10, 2024, 4:48 PM
Swift carried the ball 16 times for 59 yards and caught his only target for six yards in Sunday's 19-3 loss to the Patriots.
Analysis: The Bears came into the game missing both starting tackles on the offensive line and then saw left guard Teven Jenkins go down to an ankle injury in the first half, and the offense simply couldn't get anything going without consistent blocking. Rookie QB Caleb Williams took the worst of it, getting sacked nine times, but Swift also failed to average 4.0 yards a carry or get into the end zone for the third straight game. Unless the offensive line gets healthier, it will be tough to rely on any part of the Chicago offense heading into a Week 11 rivalry game against Green Bay.
Caleb Williams
Caleb Williams Sacked nine times in ugly loss
Sun, Nov 10, 2024, 4:42 PM
Williams completed 16 of 30 passes for 120 yards and added 15 rushing yards on two carries in Sunday's 19-3 loss to the Patriots.
Analysis: While his production was awful, it's a mark in the rookie quarterback's favor that he didn't commit any turnovers on a day in which his injury-ravaged offensive line gave him no protection. Williams was brought down a stunning nine times by a New England defense that came into Sunday with only 16 sacks total on the season through its first nine contests. Over three games since Chicago's Week 7 bye, the first overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft has been sacked 18 times, and the Bears have lost all three. Unless starting tackles Braxton Jones (knee) and Darnell Wright (knee) get healthy in time, Williams could be running for his life again in Week 11 against Rashan Gary and the Packers.
Caleb Williams
Caleb Williams Clear of ankle injury
Wed, Nov 6, 2024, 3:59 PM
Williams (ankle) wasn't listed on the Bears' first Week 10 injury report posted Wednesday.
Analysis: Williams injured his left ankle on the Bears' last play of this past Sunday's loss in Arizona, but he said afterward that he expected to be fine moving forward. His activity at Wednesday's practice confirmed as much, paving the way for him to continue leading Chicago's offense Sunday versus the Patriots.
Caleb Williams
Caleb Williams Ankle injury not viewed as concern
Mon, Nov 4, 2024, 8:38 AM
Williams twisted his left ankle on the Bears' final play in Sunday's loss to the Cardinals, but the quarterback said after the game that he'll be alright, Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com reports. "I landed wrong and just kind of tweaked it and [on] the last play, the dude grabbed my ankle and gator rolled," Williams said.
Analysis: Even though the Bears were trailing by 20 in the final minute of the contest, head coach Matt Eberflus said that he elected to keep Williams in the game to work on the efficiency of the team's two-minute drill. While that decision may look questionable in hindsight, the rookie signal-caller at least seems to have avoided a serious injury. Williams is scheduled to be evaluated Monday, but the expectation is that he'll be ready to go for Week 10 against the Patriots. Williams endured a tough outing against the Cardinals, getting sacked six times while completing 22 of 41 passes for 217 yards and no touchdowns.
Gerald Everett
Gerald Everett One target in losing effort
Sun, Nov 3, 2024, 10:06 PM
Everett caught one pass for five yards in the Bears' 29-9 loss to the Cardinals on Sunday.
Analysis: Everett has one game with more than five yards this season. Given the veteran's low-volume role in the offense, Everett has very little fantasy value at this time.
Cole Kmet
Cole Kmet Not targeted in defeat
Sun, Nov 3, 2024, 10:04 PM
Kmet posted no stats in the Bears' 29-9 loss to the Cardinals on Sunday.
Analysis: During Weeks 3 through 6, Kmet was one of the highest scoring tight ends in the league. Since Chicago's Week 7 bye, the offense has been terrible. In the last two games, Kmet has one catch for 14 yards. Unless the Bears figure out their woes on offense, Kmet should be considered a boom-or-bust fantasy option.
Roschon Johnson
Roschon Johnson Five touches in defeat
Sun, Nov 3, 2024, 10:01 PM
Johnson rushed three times for 13 yards and caught three passes for eight yards in the Bears' 29-9 loss to the Cardinals on Sunday.
Analysis: After averaging 10 touches between Weeks 3 and 5, Johnson's role has been scaled back. In the last three games, the running back has handled a total of 12 touches for 60 yards and one touchdown. Johnson is likely to function in a low-volume role as long as D'Andre Swift continues to play well.
Keenan Allen
Keenan Allen Abysmal showing against Arizona
Sun, Nov 3, 2024, 9:37 PM
Allen recorded four receptions on 10 targets for 36 yards in Sunday's 29-9 loss to Arizona.
Analysis: Allen led the Bears in targets and commanded his highest total since Week 1. However, that didn't help him get on track with Caleb Williams as he averaged only 3.6 yards per target despite decent gains of 13 and 11 yards. Allen has managed to surpass 40 yards in a game just once in six chances on the campaign.
DJ Moore
DJ Moore Struggles continue
Sun, Nov 3, 2024, 9:29 PM
Moore recorded four receptions on nine targets for 33 yards in Sunday's 29-9 loss to the Cardinals.
Analysis: Moore saw his highest target total since Week 3, but he continued to struggle to get on the same page with Caleb Williams. He managed a 16-yard gain to help set up a field goal just before halftime but otherwise failed to make much of an impact on the game. Moore now has under 40 receiving yards in five of eight contests on the campaign.
Rome Odunze
Rome Odunze Showing rapport with Williams
Sun, Nov 3, 2024, 9:20 PM
Odunze recorded five receptions on seven targets for 104 yards in Sunday's 29-9 loss to the Cardinals.
Analysis: Odunze's role in Chicago's offense is becoming more consistent, as he has commanded 13 targets across the team's last two games combined. He made the most of his chances Sunday, highlighted by a 44-yard catch early in the second quarter when he broke free of Arizona's secondary. Odunze added three additional receptions of at least 15 yards, ultimately accounting for four of the team's five longest plays from scrimmage. While Keenan Allen remains Caleb Williams' favorite target, Odunze has emerged as a more explosive option in the offense and could be in for a big second half of the season.
D'Andre Swift
D'Andre Swift Totals 82 yards in loss
Sun, Nov 3, 2024, 6:56 PM
Swift rushed the ball 16 times for 51 yards in Sunday's 29-9 loss to the Cardinals. He added six receptions on six targets for 31 yards.
Analysis: Swift was bottled up as a runner throughout the game, as his longest gain went for just 13 yards and his 3.2 yards per carry were his lowest mark since Week 3. He did supplement that with six receptions to lead the team, though he worked exclusively in short areas of the field and had no explosive gains. Ultimately, Swift managed a fine performance based on volume, particularly given that the entire Chicago offense performed poorly.
Caleb Williams
Caleb Williams Another poor showing
Sun, Nov 3, 2024, 6:43 PM
Williams completed 22 of 41 passes for 217 yards, no touchdowns and no interceptions in Sunday's 29-9 loss to the Cardinals. He added four rushes for five yards.
Analysis: Williams continued to face a lot of pressure -- he was sacked six times -- and struggled to connect with his wide receivers. Positively, he didn't turn the ball over, though he otherwise struggled to get the ball moving by averaging just 5.3 yards per attempt. Williams had only one completion of over 20 yards and failed to record a touchdown in his second straight contest and for the fourth time in eight games for his rookie campaign. Coach Matt Eberflus said after the game that Williams tweaked his ankle on the final drive, per Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com, so Williams' practice participation will bear monitoring ahead of Chicago's Week 10 home game against the Patriots.
Khalil Herbert
Khalil Herbert Inactive Sunday
Sun, Nov 3, 2024, 1:52 PM
Herbert is inactive for Sunday's game against the Cardinals.
Analysis: With Herbert a healthy scratch Sunday, D'Andre Swift, Roschon Johnson and Travis Homer are available to handle the Bears' backfield duties against Arizona. As the NFL trade deadline approaches, it's possible that Herbert could be dealt by Chicago in the coming days.
DeAndre Carter
DeAndre Carter Targeted once in defeat
Sun, Oct 27, 2024, 10:37 PM
Carter caught a seven-yard pass in the Bears' 18-15 loss to the Commanders on Sunday.
Analysis: Carter had a pair of three-catch games when Keenan Allen missed time in Weeks 2-3. However, since Allen returned to action, Carter has one catch over the last four games. Unless other Chicago wide receivers miss time, Carter is unlikely to post useful fantasy numbers.
Gerald Everett
Gerald Everett Targeted twice in defeat
Sun, Oct 27, 2024, 10:34 PM
Everett caught one pass for three yards in the Bears' 18-15 loss to the Commanders on Sunday.
Analysis: Everett has caught six passes for 25 yards in seven games this season. Unless the tight end's role changes significantly, it will be tough for Everett to pile up strong fantasy numbers.
