The Chicago Bears are considering third-string quarterback Case Keenum for their Week 3 matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles on Monday Night Football. Starting QB Caleb Williams is sidelined with a hamstring strain following an injury in a loss to the Minnesota Vikings. His replacement, backup Tyson Bagent, is also uncertain due to concussion protocol, increasing the likelihood of Keenum starting. Keenum has not played in a regular-season game since December 2023, when he had limited success with the Houston Texans.
