As it turns out, Chicago's backup quarterback is also dealing with an injury.

Per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, Tyson Bagent has been diagnosed with a concussion and is now in the protocol.

With starter Caleb Williams week-to-week with a hamstring injury, Case Keenum is now in line to start against the Eagles next Monday night.

Bagent entered Sunday’s 9-3 loss to the Vikings midway through the fourth quarter after Williams exited with his hamstring injury. He played the rest of Chicago’s 10 offensive snaps to conclude the contest, going 5-of-9 passing for 54 yards.

Keenum, 38, has not appeared in a game since he started two for Houston back in 2023. He was 34-of-53 in those two contests for 291 yards with a touchdown and three interceptions.

Keenum has appeared in 80 games with 66 starts in his career, dating back to 2013.

The Bears also have rookie Miller Moss at quarterback on their practice squad.

Playing Monday night, Chicago’s first injury report of Week 3 is due out on Thursday.
