Bears name Case Keenum starting QB for Monday Night Football matchup
Summary

The Chicago Bears announced Case Keenum as their starting quarterback for Week 3 against the Philadelphia Eagles. This decision comes after Caleb Williams suffered a hamstring injury that will sideline him for multiple weeks. With Keenum under center, the Bears will look to manage the impact on their receiving corps, which features players like Luther Burden III and Colston Loveland. Experts suggest these players may face challenges in a struggling offense without their usual starting quarterback. Keenum's lack of recent starting experience could further complicate the Bears' aerial attack in their upcoming game.
