Chicago Bears WR Keenan Allen (ankle) hopefully will be able to play in the Week 12 game even though he suffered an ankle injury during practice this week and is listed as questionable, according to head coach Matt Eberflus.

Huddle Up: Fantasy players will need to monitor the situation over the next few days to see if Allen will be available for the game. He has received at least six targets in six of his eight games this season but has not posted 50 yards in any of the games. He can still be a flex option in most leagues if he is able to play.

Chicago Bears RB D'Andre Swift (groin) fully participated in practice Friday, Nov. 22, but is listed as questionable for Week 12.

Huddle Up: Swift was able to do more as the week went on and likely will be available for the game. He is the main running back for the Bears and can be a starting option in all fantasy leagues if active.

Chicago Bears WR Keenan Allen (ankle) was added to the injury report with an ankle injury following a limited practice on Friday, Nov. 22. He is listed as questionable for Week 12 against the Minnesota Vikings.

SOURCE: ChicagoBears.com

Huddle Up: Outside of his two-touchdown game in London against the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 6, Allen has been more of a WR4 than WR3. Perhaps new interim offensive coordinator Thomas Brown will be able to get more of the passing game over the next month or so, it seems unlikely that Allen will build enough trust over that time to be anything more than bench depth in fantasy. If Allen sits due to this injury, it could provide an opening for Cole Kmet to be relevant again since they typically work in similar parts of the field.

Chicago Bears RB D'Andre Swift (groin) was limited during practice Thursday, Nov. 21.

Huddle Up: Swift returned to practice Thursday and seems to have a decent chance to play in Week 12. Fantasy players should monitor the situation because Swift can be a starting option in all leagues if active.

Chicago Bears RB D'Andre Swift (groin) will not practice on Wednesday, Nov. 20, head coach Matt Eberflus said. Eberflus added that he's hopeful Swift will play in Week 12.

Huddle Up: Swift's status now becomes one to monitor over the course of the week. If he sits, Roschon Johnson would receive the bulk of the work, putting him on the flex radar.

Chicago Bears WR Keenan Allen ended up with four receptions for 41 yards on eight targets in Week 11 against the Green Bay Packers.

Huddle Up: Allen has had four or more receptions in each of his past three games, and he has been targeted 24 times in the span. It is his best stretch of the season, as he has re-emerged as a useful WR3 in PPR leagues, with lesser appeal in standard formats. The Bears host the Minnesota Vikings in Week 12.

Posted 11/17/2024 10:10 pm GMT

Chicago Bears TE Cole Kmet ended up with three receptions for 42 yards on three targets in Week 11 against the Green Bay Packers.

Huddle Up: Kmet's three receptions were his most since Week 6 against the Jacksonville Jaguars in London. He has TE1 ability, but he has just six grabs for 69 yards on eight targets in the past four outings. He has been a little nicked up, performing more like a TE2 in most formats. Treat him as such into Week 12 against the Minnesota Vikings.

Posted 11/17/2024 10:00 pm GMT

Chicago Bears WR DJ Moore ended up with seven receptions for 62 yards on seven targets in Week 11 against the Green Bay Packers.

Huddle Up: Moore's seven receptions were his most since Week 3 in Indianapolis. He hasn't scored since Week 5 against his former team, the Carolina Panthers, and his production has been a bit erratic with a rookie quarterback under center. He remains more of a WR3 in most fantasy leagues heading into Week 12 against the Minnesota Vikings.

Posted 11/17/2024 9:56 pm GMT

Chicago Bears WR Rome Odunze had six receptions for a team-high 65 yards in Week 11 against the Green Bay Packers, and his 10 targets were a game high.

Huddle Up: Odunze hasn't scored since Week 3 in Indianapolis, his only NFL touchdown. He does have three or more receptions and six or more targets in each of his past four games. Treat the rookie as a WR3 or flex fantasy option in PPR leagues heading into Week 12 against the Minnesota Vikings, with slightly lesser value in standard play.

Roschon Johnson - RB

Posted 11/17/2024 9:53 pm GMT

Chicago Bears RB Roschon Johnson rushed 10 times for 33 yards and a touchdown in Week 11 against the Green Bay Packers, while adding an 8-yard catch on his only target.

Huddle Up: Johnson's fantasy ceiling is rather limited as long as D'Andre Swift remains healthy. He did tie his most rushing attempts for the season, and his 11 total touches were the most of the season. He is best used as a low-end RB3 or flex fantasy option in deeper leagues heading into in Week 12 against the Minnesota Vikings.

Posted 11/17/2024 9:50 pm GMT

Chicago Bears RB D'Andre Swift rushed 14 times for 71 yards and a touchdown in Week 11 against the Green Bay Packers, while adding two receptions for 13 yards on his two targets.

Huddle Up: Swift has been a pretty consistent RB2 in most fantasy leagues, going for 51 or more rushing yards in seven straight games, while totaling five touchdowns in the span. He also has two or more receptions in seven of his nine games to help out PPR managers, too. The Bears host the Minnesota Vikings in Week 12.

Caleb Williams - QB

Posted 11/17/2024 9:48 pm GMT

Chicago Bears QB Caleb Williams completed 23-of-31 passes for 231 yards, no touchdowns and no interceptions in Week 11 against the Green Bay Packers, while running nine times for 70 yards.

Huddle Up: Williams was pretty accurate in this one, but he accounted for zero touchdowns which helps no one in fantasy football. He has consistently posted low-end QB2 type numbers all season. He'll look for improvement in Week 12 against the Minnesota Vikings.

Caleb Williams - QB

Posted 11/11/2024 7:31 pm GMT

Chicago Bears QB Caleb Williams will remain the starter while the offense goes under evaluations, head coach Matt Eberflus said Monday, Nov. 11.

SOURCE: NFL.com

Huddle Up: The Bears offense has struggled under Shane Waldron since coming out of the Week 7 bye, and Williams has failed to throw a touchdown pass in any of his last three games. The rookie has flashed some promise, but he remains a mid QB2 until he can prove to show some consistency.

Posted 11/10/2024 11:13 pm GMT

Chicago Bears TE Cole Kmet caught two passes for 13 yards against the New England Patriots in Week 10. He was targeted four times during the game.

Huddle Up: Kmet is on a cold streak with only 27 yards total over the last three games. Fantasy players may want to avoid Kmet until he is more involved in the passing game.

Posted 11/10/2024 11:12 pm GMT

Chicago Bears WR Rome Odunze caught three passes for 23 yards against the New England Patriots in Week 10. He was targeted six times during the game.

Huddle Up: Odunze had a disappointing performance this week after posting over 100 yards last week. He likely will see a decent amount of targets next week but may only be a flex option in most leagues.

Posted 11/10/2024 11:06 pm GMT

Chicago Bears WR DJ Moore caught three passes for 24 yards against the New England Patriots in Week 10. He was targeted six times during the game.

Huddle Up: Moore has not posted more than 33 yards in any of the last four games even though he is still receiving a good amount of targets. He should be involved in the passing game next week but may only be a flex option in fantasy leagues.

Posted 11/10/2024 11:02 pm GMT

Chicago Bears WR Keenan Allen caught five passes for 44 yards against the New England Patriots in Week 10. He was targeted six times during the game.

Huddle Up: Allen has been targeted 23 times over the last three games but has been held to 44 yards or less in all of the games. He may only be a possible flex option at this point since the Bears passing game has not had much success in recent games.

Posted 11/10/2024 10:59 pm GMT

Chicago Bears RB D'Andre Swift rushed for 59 yards on 16 carries against the New England Patriots in Week 10. He also caught one pass for six yards during the game.

Huddle Up: Swift has received at least 16 carries in each of the last six games but has been held under 60 yards in each of the last two games. He will continue to see a good amount of touches during games and can be at least a flex option in all fantasy leagues.

Posted 11/04/2024 4:49 am GMT

Chicago Bears TE Cole Kmet was not targeted during the club's Week 9 loss to the Arizona Cardinals.

Huddle Up: Kmet, who had a nice run from Week 3 through Week 6, has been completely absent from the game plan since the Bears returned from their Bye, being targeted exactly once over the last two games combined. He's had enough nice games this year to show he's capable of producing TE1 numbers, but with several of the underperforming tight ends stepping things up lately it's easy to advocate moving on from Kmet outside of deeper leagues where you have the roster space to carry a second tight end.

Posted 11/04/2024 4:39 am GMT

Chicago Bears WR Keenan Allen caught four passes (on a team-high 10 targets) for 36 yards against the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday, Nov. 3.

Huddle Up: It was more of the same for Allen, who hasn't reached 50 yards in a game this season, meaning he's delivered next to nothing for fantasy owners in all but one of his six appearances -- the lone exception was his two-touchdown effort against Jacksonville in Week 6. The 10 targets are a silver lining, but unless/until he starts producing, he's no more than depth at the bottom of your roster.

Posted 11/04/2024 2:47 am GMT

Chicago Bears WR Rome Odunze caught five of his seven targets for 104 yards in a 29-9 loss to the Arizona Cardinals in Week 9.

Huddle Up: Odunze recorded his second 100-yard game, but he has finished with 41 yards or less in his other six starts. At best, the rookie is an all-or-nothing flex play.

Posted 11/04/2024 2:44 am GMT

Chicago Bears WR DJ Moore caught four of his nine targets for 33 yards in a 29-9 to loss to the Arizona Cardinals in Week 9.

Huddle Up: Moore is mired in a rough stretch, and over the last three games, he has a combined 10 receptions for 80 yards. He is no more than a flex option.

Posted 11/04/2024 2:26 am GMT

Chicago Bears RB D'Andre Swift rushed 16 times for 51 yards and caught all six of his targets for 31 yards in a 29-9 loss to the Arizona Cardinals in Week 9.

Huddle Up: It wasn't his most potent performance, but Swift is clearly the centerpiece of Chicago's offense, being heavily involved as a receiver on top of his running duties. He's a strong RB2 moving forward.

Caleb Williams - QB

Posted 11/04/2024 2:06 am GMT

Chicago Bears QB Caleb Williams completed 22 of his 41 passes for 217 yards and was sacked six times in a 29-9 loss to the Arizona Cardinals in Week 9.

Huddle Up: After tossing four touchdowns against the Jaguars, Williams has gone back-to-back games without throwing a touchdown pass. The rookie has flashed his potential, but he is still too inconsistent to be more than a QB2 option.

Posted 10/28/2024 3:43 am GMT

Chicago Bears TE Cole Kmet ended up with a single 14-yard on one target in Week 8 against the Washington Commanders.

Huddle Up: Kmet had his worst game since Week 1, when he was also limited to a single catch. His fantasy production is at the mercy of rookie QB Caleb Williams, and when the latter struggles, so does Kmet. The Chicago pass attack looks to bounce back in Week 9 at Arizona. He should be treated as a TE2 for that matchup in most fantasy leagues.

Posted 10/28/2024 3:41 am GMT

Chicago Bears WR DJ Moore ended up with two catches for 27 yards on four targets in Week 8 against the Washington Commanders.

Huddle Up: Moore has had back-to-back stinkers since lighting up the Carolina Panthers for 105 yards and two scores in Week 5. He has just six catches for 47 yards on nine targets in the past two games. He should be treated as a WR3 or flex fantasy option in leagues of 12 or more teams heading into Week 9.

Posted 10/28/2024 3:38 am GMT

Chicago Bears WR Keenan Allen was targeted seven times in Week 8 against the Washington Commanders, but he managed just two catches for 39 yards.

Huddle Up: Allen just couldn't get on the same page with his rookie quarterback, who is having trouble with consistency. Allen is best used as a low-end WR3 or flex fantasy option in PPR leagues, with slightly lesser appeal in standard play.

Posted 10/28/2024 3:35 am GMT

Chicago Bears WR Rome Odunze ended up with three receptions for 41 yards on six targets in Week 8 against the Washington Commanders.

Huddle Up: Odunze has 40 or more receiving yards in each of the past three outings. The rookie is a decent WR4 or flex fantasy option in leagues of 12 or more teams, and he has a ton of upside.

Posted 10/28/2024 3:16 am GMT

Chicago Bears RB D'Andre Swift ended up with 18 runs for a season-high 129 yards and a touchdown in Week 8 against the Washington Commanders, and he was not targeted in the pass game.
