Caleb Williams will miss his first game with the Chicago Bears due to a right hamstring injury sustained late in last week's loss to Minnesota. The Bears ruled him out for the upcoming game against Philadelphia. Chicago is considering starting either Tyson Bagent, who is going through the concussion protocol, or veteran Case Keenum, who practiced with the first-team offense. The Bears have struggled offensively, scoring 59 points in their season opener but just three in their last game. This injury impacts the team significantly, as Williams had tallied impressive numbers before being sidelined, contributing to four touchdowns in the early part of the season. The final decision on the starting quarterback may not be made until just before the game.
- •Caleb Williams injured his right hamstring during the fourth quarter against Minnesota.
- •Bears scored only 3 points in their last game after scoring 59 in the opener.
- •Tyson Bagent's status remains questionable as he remains in concussion protocol.
- •Case Keenum is a potential starter, last playing a regular-season game in 2023.
