It will be the fourth consecutive game that Monangai will miss while nursing thumb and toe injuries. His next opportunity to play is Week 9 against the Buccaneers on Sunday, Nov. 8, but he would need to be cleared to practice before the Bears entertain bringing the second-year pro back into the fold. Roschon Johnson will continue to serve as the Bears' RB2 behind D'Andre Swift in Monangai's absence, while Zavier Scott -- who was signed to the active roster Tuesay -- provides additional backfield depth.

Monangai has now missed another practice while managing thumb and toe issues. He hasn't practiced in weeks and appears headed for another absence Monday night against the Seahawks. If Monangai does sit, Roschon Johnson would again handle backup duties behind D'Andre Swift.

Monangai hasn't suited up since Week 4, and he continues to be bothered by a pair of injures at the start of Chicago's Week 8 prep. He'll have an extra day to recover with the Bears playing on MNF against Seattle. Roschon Johnson has played in a change-of-pace role behind D'Andre Swift during Monangai's absence.

Monangai has missed the last three games due to a turf toe injury, and until he's able to mix into drills in some capacity, he likely isn't a candidate to return to action. Thursday's injury report will reveal his activity level to begin Week 8 prep, but if he doesn't practice, he'll have two more chances to do so ahead of Monday's game at Seattle.

Monangai thus will miss a third game in a row as he tends to a turf toe injury. Last Friday, head coach Ben Johnson told Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com that the Bears aren't expecting to place Monangai on injured reserve, so he appears to have a chance to return in Week 8 at Seattle next Monday, assuming he's able to get back on the practice field next week. In the meantime, D'Andre Swift will continue to lead Chicago's backfield, with Roschon Johnson on hand as Swift's top backup.

Monangai also logged a DNP on Monday's estimated practice report. If Monangai remains sidelined Thursday versus New England, Roschon Johnson would be in line to see added backfield work once again behind D'Andre Swift.

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 complementary role.

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 for the former in last Sunday's loss at Green Bay. Meanwhile, Monangai's next chance for game action is next Thursday against the Patriots.

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.

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.

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.

Monangai visited a toe specialist and is now in a walking boot. According to Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com, Monangai is considered week-to-week, though he's not a candidate for injured reserve, which would suggest the Bears expect the running back to return within the next four weeks. Roschon Johnson seems likely to take on an increased offensive role behind D'Andre Swift (hip/knee) in the short term.

Monangai came out of Week 4 with a right thumb issue, but the health concern that popped up on Wednesday's practice report may be threatening his availability in the short term. He hasn't practiced so far this week and has only one more opportunity to mix into drills Friday before the Bears potentially make a ruling on him ahead of Sunday's game in Green Bay. If Monangai is inhibited or sidelined this weekend, D'Andre Swift (hip/knee) likely will handle a workhorse role out of Chicago's backfield, though Roschon Johnson also could experience an expanded workload.

With back-to-back absences to begin Week 5 prep due to thumb and toe injuries, Monangai now has only one more chance to mix into drills Friday, at which point the Bears could make a ruling on his availability for Sunday's game at Green Bay. Meanwhile, backfield mate D'Andre Swift (hip/knee) upgraded to limited Thursday, seemingly putting him in a better spot to suit up this weekend.

The thumb injury was known coming out of Sunday's win, but the toe issue is a new revelation. Monangai peeled off 146 yards over 30 carries before coach Ben Johnson announced that the second-year back was dealing with a thumb issue. The Bears kept him out of practice Wednesday, so Monangai's status is now on the radar for the rest of the week. Of note, D'Andre Swift (hip/knee) also did not practice Wednesday. Chicago's run game has been key to keeping things on track in Caleb Williams' absence.

While Johnson downplayed Monangai's thumb issue, he did say the running back is feeling the effects of his 30-carry workload from last Sunday's win over the Jets. The Bears could limit Monangai's snaps in practice this week, and it's fair to wonder if D'Andre Swift will step back into the clear lead role for Sunday's divisional matchup with the Packers.

Monangai was on the bench for the final four minutes of the victory due to the injury, but he handled a hefty workload prior to his departure, finishing the day with 30 carries for 146 yards and two touchdowns while tacking on a four-yard reception on his lone target. With imaging on Monangai's thumb revealing nothing overly concerning, Johnson is expecting the second-year back to be fine for next Sunday's matchup with the Packers. Even so, it wouldn't be surprising if Monangai ended up being a non-participant or limited participant when the Bears begin Week 5 prep Wednesday.

Monangai ripped off 30 carries for 146 yards and two touchdowns to go with a four-yard catch on his only target in Week 4, while fellow RB D'Andre Swift notched 15 rushes himself for 58 yards and hauled in both of his targets for 16 yards. Perhaps the breakdown of RB touches among them is related to the knee injury that Swift tended to in advance of this game, but in any case Monangai now is dealing with a health concern of his own. The statuses of the two thus will bear monitoring as Chicago gears up for an NFC North road showdown with the Packers next Sunday.

The second-year back logged exactly half of D'Andre Swift's workload on the ground, with Monangai handling his third straight 10-carry total to open the season. The Rutgers product saw his efficiency take a notable dip for the second consecutive game following a stellar Week 1 where he averaged 10.0 yards per carry, yet Monangai's role as a fairly high-volume No. 2 back in Chicago's offense is safe. The lack of receiving work Monday night was a disappointment after Monangai posted a 4-35-0 line through the air in the first two games, but he'll have a chance to atone in what should be a favorable Week 4 home matchup against the Jets on Sunday.
