Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams was back at full practice Thursday, making it his second straight day as a full participant. This is a massive update for Bears fans who have watched him miss the last three games with a hamstring injury.

Williams’ Return: Will He Play Sunday?

Look, the dude’s been out for three weeks, sidelined by that hamstring. But two full practices in a row? That’s the kind of news that gets everyone buzzing. If Williams gets through another good practice on Friday, it’s looking like he’s going to get the start this Sunday when the Bears face off against the Falcons. Talk about a potential game-changer.

Other Bears Banged Up

While Williams seems to be on the upswing, it is not all good news on the injury front for Chicago. Running back Kyle Monangai, for example, is not looking great. He did not even play last week because of a toe injury, and he has not practiced at all this week. That is a rough sign.

A bunch of other guys were out of practice too: linebackers T.J. Edwards (hamstring) and Keyshaun Elliott (quad), defensive linemen Grady Jarrett (rest) and Dayo Odeyingbo (quad), plus guard Joe Thuney (rest). Cornerback Tyrique Stevenson was limited with a hip issue. On the brighter side, defensive back Kyler Gordon was a full participant, battling back from a calf injury, just like Williams.

This weekend’s game against the Falcons is huge for the Bears, especially with all these injury questions. All eyes will be on that Friday practice report. If Williams is truly back, Sunday’s gonna be interesting.
