Ben Johnson: At this point, we're unsure of who will start at QB on Monday night
Bears coach Ben Johnson said the team has not settled on a Week 3 starter with Caleb Williams and Tyson Bagent both injured, per ProFootballTalk. Case Keenum is in line to start on Monday night.
With Caleb Williams and Tyson Bagent each dealing with an injury, Case Keenum is in line to start for the Bears at quarterback in Week 3.
Sharp take
Sharp SixBenchWilliams is doubtful in a 41.5-point game as a 4.5-point underdog, which is two reasons to bench him before the quarterback question even comes up. Nothing about this is confirmed, so the third-string outcome is still a report rather than a fact. Keenum against Philadelphia is not a stream in a 12-team league, and Bagent's 2.7 points in Week 2 made that case on his own. Start someone else and let Monday happen without you.
