The Chicago Bears signed Zavier Scott from the practice squad to their 53-man roster on October 27, signaling that running back Kyle Monangai will likely miss the upcoming game against the Seattle Seahawks. Monangai has been unavailable since Week 4 due to a turf toe injury and a thumb issue, missing three consecutive practices. Despite earlier optimism about his return, the team's roster move suggests a shift in expectations. The Bears have performed well in Monangai's absence, winning their last two games, but his hard-charging running style will be missed against the Seahawks, known for their strong run defense.

- •Scott has played mainly on special teams this season.
- •Bears have won their last two games without Monangai.
- •Monangai was not present at Tuesday's practice.
- •Injury report for Week 8 will be released Thursday.
