Tyson Bagent in concussion protocol as Bears could be down to third quarterback in Week 3, per report
CBS Sports reports Tyson Bagent has entered concussion protocol after the Week 2 loss to Minnesota, where Caleb Williams was also injured. Chicago could be down to its third quarterback for Week 3 against Philadelphia.
Bagent and Caleb Williams both sustained injuries in the Week 2 loss to the Vikings
Sharp take
Sharp SixHoldWilliams is listed Out and Bagent is in protocol, so the Bears quarterback room is a rumor at this point. Williams is rostered in 100% of leagues and stays that way on the back of a 40.0-point Week 1; you do not cut a top-100 asset over one missed week. Bagent put up 2.7 points and is owned nowhere, and a third-stringer as a 3-point home underdog in a 44.5 total is not a streamer. Hold Williams, start someone else, and leave the rest of that depth chart alone.
